New information about the benefits of growing stem cells in microgravity from one of our partner researchers.

Feasibility, potency, and safety of growing human mesenchymal stem cells in space for clinical application Growing stem cells on Earth is very challenging and limited to a few population doublings. The standard two-dimensional (2D) culture environment is an unnatural condition for cell growth. Therefore, culturing stem cells aboard the International Space Station (ISS) under a microgravity environment ma...

The Vascular Tissue Challenge was recently highlighted by 3dheals. Check out the video interview with the challenge director to learn more about how university students are taking on the VTC and how 3D bioprinting is starting to revolutionize healthcare! You can also learn more at the 3DHeals virtual Summit coming up in June!

Interview with Joshua Neubert, NASA Vascular Tissue Challenge Joshua Neubert is a regular instructor, public speaker & lecturer in entrepreneurship, innovation, and education topics particularly related to science and technology fields.

Exciting news on 3D Organ printing involving two research teams in the Vascular Tissue Challenge:

3D-printing organs moves a few more steps closer to commercialization – TechCrunch New successes in printing vascular tissue from living cells point to the accelerating pace of development of 3D-printing tissue — and eventually the ability to manufacture organs from small samples of cells. Late last month Prellis Biologics announced an $8.7 million round of funding and some…
