Biological 3D Printing CST300L Fall 2013
The rewards are incredible. • Print organs • Regenerate skin • No more donors • Fix hearts Ted video – Printing a human kidney
How it works Bioprinting
Benefits to Society • No donor lists • Bioprinted food • Eliminate animal testing • New bones & organs
Possible Consequences • Similar to cloning? • Possible black markets? • Replacing parts just to make them better?
