3D bioprinting is an emerging technology with applications throughout the complete range of biomedical research. The method directly builds on 3D printing technologies employing a biological substrate or ‘bioink’, made of structural components, growth media, and cells, to produce 3D biological structures that closely imitate the structure of cells in living organisms.

 .

Using the same additive manufacturing model as traditional 3D printing, a number of 2D slices are divided from a 3D model by a computer to print an accurate biological composition layer-by-layer with a precise arrangement of tissues and cells. 3D bioprinting offers an opportunity to solve issues in drug development, regenerative medicine, organ donation, and cancer treatment. As with all emerging technologies, researchers are also creating solutions to its challenges to enhance the prospects of this innovative tool.
