Joint Event on

3D BIOPRINTING OF HUMAN SOFT

TISSUES

D Bioprinting has gained attention in tissue engineering due to its abil-

ity to spatially control the placement of cells, biomaterials and biologi-

cal molecules. The development of new hydrogel bioinks with good print-

ability and bioactive properties has made it possible to 3D bioprint and

accelerate the maturation of complex 3D tissue-like models. In this talk,

we present our recent work in bioink development for 3D bioprinting and

culture of healthy tissues such as skin, bone and cartilage, as well as cancer

tissues, such as breast cancer and osteosarcoma tissue models.
