New bioink brings 3D-printing of human organs closer to reality

Posted by in categories: 3D printing, bioengineering, biotech/medical

Researchers at Lund University have designed a new bioink which allows small human-sized airways to be 3D-bioprinted with the help of patient cells for the first time. The 3D-printed constructs are biocompatible and support new blood vessel growth into the transplanted material. This is an important first step towards 3D-printing organs.

Therefore, researchers are looking at ways to increase the amount of lungs available for transplantation. One approach is fabricating lungs in the lab by combining cells with a bioengineered scaffold.

Announcing the in-person book launch of “The Illusion of Knowledge: The paradigm shift in aging research that shows the way to human rejuvenation” with the presence of the author

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, chemistry, life extension

Dr. The book launch will happen on September 4th, at 3 p.m. (Pacific Time) in Book Passage Ferry Building Store in San Francisco, California!
Please come to have an in-person chat with Dr. Katcher.

Dr. Harold Katcher is one of the discoverers of the human breast cancer gene (BRCA1), and has thousands of citations in the scientific literature, with publications ranging from protein structure to bacteriology, biotechnology, bioinformatics and biochemistry. He was the Academic Director for Natural Sciences for the Asian Division of the University of Maryland Global Campus, and nowadays is Chief Scientific Officer at Yuvan Research Inc., which is working on the development of rejuvenation treatments.

Here’s the new Specter 700 V2 all built and flight ready 😁

Posted by in category: futurism

Sorry if I look a bit horrible, I’ve been a bit ill the past few days. But the V2 sure doesn’t look half bad. She does indeed fly as good as she looks.

As mentioned before the feeling of the tail is a big improvement, the head itself feels much tighter and more locked in, in part thanks to the more rigid frame. It also flips on a dime too, thanks to the lowered head and more central centre of gravity.

All in all I’m loving this model. It’s getting dark now, I should probably go home… one more flight maybe 😂
