Oxford Builds and Tests Structured Human Brain Tissue Using 3D Printing
AI SUMMARY

Oxford University researchers have successfully 3D printed structured human brain tissue using stem cells and microfluidics, then implanted it into living mouse brains. The breakthrough demonstrates how additive manufacturing technology could potentially be applied to biological tissue engineering and medical repair applications.

FROM THE ARTICLE

Oxford University researchers have successfully built and implanted structured human brain tissue into living mouse brains. Over several years, the Oxford Martin Programme on 3D Printing for Brain Repair used stem cells, 3D printing, and microfluidics to engineer layered cortical tissue that…
