We’ve come a long way from the Vacanti mouse. Back in the mid-90s, Charles Vacanti and other researchers experimented with cartilage regeneration and, with the help of a biodegradable mold and bovine ...

Researchers have transplanted a 3D-printed human ear—made by the regenerative medicine company 3DBio Therapeutics—for the first time. The basic process involves a biopsy to harvest cartilage cells ...

Using state-of-the-art tissue engineering techniques and a 3D printer, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and Cornell Engineering have assembled a replica of an adult human ear that looks and feels ...

“We see in our specialty patients who have ear deformities, called microtia, which can be reconstructed, but it's a technically challenging operation that I think very few people in the world do well, ...

- AuriNovo™ an investigational, 3D-bioprinted implant was created using a proprietary process leveraging the patient’s own tissue to generate an implantable ear - NEW YORK & SAN ANTONIO--(BUSINESS ...

Doctors have successfully transplanted a 3D-printed ear made from human cells onto the face of a 20-year-old woman who was born with a misshapen ear, a notable breakthrough in tissue engineering with ...

The 3D printing boom has been changing the medical field in recent years. Engineers have discovered ways to print viable organ tissue and mini organs that have the potential to impact drug and ...

Doctors and a tech company have successfully teamed up to implant a 3D printed ear onto a patient for the first time. The patient was a 20-year-old woman with microtia, a condition in which a person ...

When it comes to repairing human bodies, there’s one major difficulty: spare parts are hard to come by. It’s simply not possible to buy a knee joint or a new lung off the shelf. At best, doctors and ...

A 20-year-old woman who was born with a small and misshapen right ear has received a 3D printed ear implant made from her own cells, the manufacturer announced on Thursday. Independent experts said ...
