3D打印机打印心脏

A team of researchers from Carnegie Mellon University has published a paper in Science that details a new technique allowing anyone to 3D bioprint tissue scaffolds out of collagen, the major structural protein in the human body. This first-of-its-kind method brings the field of tissue engineering one step closer to being able to 3D print a full-sized, adult human heart.

卡内基梅隆大学的一个研究小组在《科学》杂志上发表了一篇论文,详细阐述了一种新技术,该技术允许任何人用胶原蛋白(人体的主要结构蛋白)打印出组织构架。这种首创的方法使组织工程领域更接近于能够3D打印一个全尺寸的成人心脏。
