Missouri S&T Unveils Faster, Light-Based 3D Printing for Organs-on-a-Chip
A research team at Missouri University of Science and Technology has developed a light-driven 3D printing technique designed to streamline the creation of organs-on-a-chip—tiny tissue-like devices used for drug testing and medical research.
University of Windsor 3D printing multi-story student residence Construction 3D Printing
An ambitious new building project has broken ground in Canadian city of Windsor, Ontario: a multi-story student residence constructed using 3D printing. The build, commissioned by the University of Windsor, will be the first of its kind in Canada and will eventually house seven student units (with 25 beds) and serve as a “living laboratory” for engineering students and researchers.
Texas A&M Uses 3D Bioprinting to Study Lung Cells in Extreme Flight Conditions
Flying at high altitudes or traveling in space exposes the human body to extreme changes in pressure, temperature, and oxygen levels—environments that traditional cell cultures fail to mimic. Scientists at Texas A&M University have developed a 3D bioprinting method to study these effects.
BioCabinet: Advancing Space Medicine with 3D Printed Human Tissue
Treating medical emergencies in space is challenging, as immediate care is limited and returning to Earth is both costly and time-consuming. To address these constraints, a research team led by Professor Park Chan-heum from Hallym University Chuncheon Sacred Heart Hospital has developed BioCabinet, a space biology research payload designed to produce living tissue in orbit and evaluate disease responses under microgravity conditions.
UVA Scientists Develop Flexible PEG Material for Organ Scaffolds and Advanced Batteries
Scientists at the University of Virginia have introduced a new kind of 3D printable material that is compatible with the body’s immune system. The innovation is expected to support safer implantable devices, next-generation drug-delivery systems, and even improved solid-state batteries.
Sydney Researchers Develop Patient-Specific 3D Arteries to Study Stroke Risk
Researchers at the University of Sydney have developed 3D printed blood vessels on glass that replicate both the anatomy and fluid dynamics of real arteries. Published in Advanced Materials, the technology provides a new platform to study stroke mechanisms and test patient-specific medications.
Boise State Researchers Move 3D Printed Biomechanics Tool Toward Commercial Launch
US-based Boise State University researchers are developing a first-of-its-kind 3D printed device aimed at improving the accuracy of biomechanical testing in Boise, Idaho. Supported by the TRANSFORM Seed Grants Program part of the National Science Foundation’s ART award, the team plans to launch the tool commercially next year, advancing the translation of university research into real-world applications.
Texas A&M Advances Hospital-Ready 3D Printing for Personalized Pediatric Drugs
Researchers at Texas A&M University are developing a 3D printing approach to tackle a long-standing gap in pediatric care: the lack of safe, precisely measured drug doses for children. Led by Professor Mansoor Khan, the team is building hospital-ready technology designed to replace improvised liquid formulations with on-demand, accurately dosed tablets — a shift that is expected to improve treatment consistency and patient outcomes.
