Scientists at UCSF and Biohub have developed a seaweed-derived material that helps miniature lab-grown organs form more consistently. By blending alginate microparticles into Matrigel, they created a gel that holds printed cells in position while allowing organoids to grow and organize themselves. The discovery could advance disease research and move medicine closer to manufacturing replacement human tissue. https://3dprintingindustry.com/news/ucsf-and-biohub-scientists-develop-new-material-to-grow-more-consistent-lab-organs-250183/ #3Dprint #3Dprinting #UCSF #Biohub #organoid
UCSF and Biohub Scientists Develop New Material to Grow More Consistent Lab Organs - 3D Printing Industry

Scientists at UC San Francisco and Biohub have developed a seaweed-derived material that helps miniature lab-grown organs form more consistently, a development researchers say could advance disease research and move medicine closer to manufacturing replacement human tissue. The findings, published in Nature Materials on March 10, aim to address one of organoid science’s longstanding challenges: […]
