3D bioprinting pushes bone scaffold engineering forward

Bone tissue engineering (BTE) has emerged as a critical solution for repairing large bone defects caused by trauma, infection ...
The bone marrow serves as the main site of hematopoiesis in humans, giving rise to red and white blood cells. This space is highly organized into distinct regions, or niches, that perform different ...
Clinicians have successfully used custom-made 3D printed bone scaffolds, printed on-site at The University of Queensland, to rebuild part of a man's jawbone. Professor Saso Ivanovski from UQ's School ...
A scaffold is a simple and temporary structure, erected to facilitate the construction or remediation of a main structure, but it may not be given the attention in its design and/or construction that ...
