Imagine being able to create bone. Things like jawbone surgery, healing fractures, and treating bone diseases would be revolutionized. Well, a future in which doctors and researchers regularly use a
Check out the amazing work that our collaborators, Dr. Kevin Costa and his lab, are doing at Mount Sinai! From the article: Scientists have successfully grown human heart tissue in
3D bioprinting is an intuitive way to approach biology. But not many people realize its versatility. Read on for 10 cool things you could make with a 3D bioprinter in
Here at Allevi, we’re always keeping an eye out for research being done in tissue engineering and stem cell biology. Together, these disciplines form the backbone of regenerative medicine. So, it’s
Mary Shelley published her magnum opus, Frankenstein, in 1818. It was at this point in human history that the burgeoning scientific revolution of the 19th century ushered in one of the most
Mother Nature is a master engineer. Through years of evolution, it has fine-tuned the relationship between structure and function for all organisms. By turning to nature for inspiration, scientists, builders,
Here’s some BIG, heartwarming news in the world of 3D bioprinting and medical science—literally heartwarming because through the use of a 3D printed heart, doctors were able to save the
At Allevi, our goal is to build tools that will allow scientists to explore questions in 3D culture. Yet, while this approach brings us closer to achieving the physiological microenvironments
We’ve talked about what bioprinting entails in general. We’ve touched on the types of cells that we can incorporate into bioprinted constructs. We’ve also discussed the potential of this technology
As one of the first groups who are working with Allevi to assess the seemingly endless potential of their bioprinter, we felt it would be good to share a bit
Technological progress is marked by highly disruptive technologies – technologies that people don’t think they need when a new market comes up, but which fundamentally change the way we live
Today, we wanted to provide some context to spark a discussion on using synthetic biology as supplements in structures to make them self-healing. There is a piece on self-healing concrete that was
