EVENTO
How to bioprint human organ
Tipo de evento: Seminário LNCC
Organ printing is a biomedical variant of additive manufacturing technology. Organ printing could defined as a computer aided robotic additive biofabrication of functional three-dimensional human organ constructs according to digital model (Blueprint) using self-assembling tissue spheroids as building blocks. Organ printing includes three main steps: i) pre-processing or designing digital model or blueprint of bioprintable organ constructs; ii) processing or actual bioprinting using tissue spheroids as a bioink and bioprocessible and biocompatible hydrogel as a biopaper and 3D bioprinter as a cartesian type precision robot dispensing biomaterials; iii) post-processing or accelerated tissue maturation. First successful bioprinting of mouse thyroid gland organ construct will be presented. Special attention will be devoted to designing intra-organ branched vascular tree for bioprinting of human kidney.
