When 3D printing meets biology.

ChiTownBiologist Ese Osaghe has been talking about bioprinting since the moment he became involved with ChiTownBio. For the uninitiated, bioprinting takes an additive manufacturing (i.e. “3D printing”) approach to creating biomaterials. Bioprinted materials have the potential to print new tissues and organs on demand, to create sustainable and high-performance biomaterials, and to rethink how we interact with the living world. Ese’s been blogging about bioprinting over at 3DPrint.com and we wanted to share this growing resource on bioprinting with our community.

Enjoy!
