Researchers at the University of Bristol have developed the bio-ink, created by scientists at the University of Bristol, from stem cells.
It is expected to pave the way for the production of complex tissues to replace diseased or damaged areas of the body such as knees and hips and eventually the creation of vital organs.
Lead researcher Dr Adam Perriman, an expert in cellular medicine at the University of Bristol, said: “This is a very exciting development which we believe could lead to a revolution in the treatment of diseases like osteoarthritis and other causes of tissue damage.
“This approach is taking the scientific world by storm in terms of its approach to regenerative medicine.”
He added: “We believe this work will also help in the development of this new field bioprinting, which can be applied in other areas of medicine, including the treatment of burns, and even the development of organs.”
The new bio-ink has already been engineered to create 3D printed tissue structures including a full-size tracheal cartilage ring.
The formulation contains human stem cells – which can convert to other cell types – along with nutrients and molecules called polymers which can change from solid to liquid according to temperature....

This will lead to Von Neuman Machines aka Replicators (Stargate Atlantis).
Nothing to worry about—the elites have everything under control....not.
Plenty of resources on this for further research if you look around, might be worth a try.
As for “printing” an integrated, living, functioning organ, you can file that under science fiction.
And there will never be transporters that move a living creature from one place to another.
I like Star Trek too, but I understand how things work.
Thank man. That was nice. No harm in trying, that’s for sure.
I can’t think of words i want a lot more than before, but I’m still pretty with it.
I take omega 3 and Turmeric, and if i stop for a week or so, I notice it. I think it’s the turmeric more.
But this fast sounds like a good idea.
Good luck, I hope you find something that helps.
