Using state-of-the-art tissue engineering techniques and a 3D printer, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and Cornell Engineering have assembled a replica of an adult human ear that looks and feels ...

Researchers have transplanted a 3D-printed human ear—made by the regenerative medicine company 3DBio Therapeutics—for the first time. The basic process involves a biopsy to harvest cartilage cells ...

We’ve come a long way from the Vacanti mouse. Back in the mid-90s, Charles Vacanti and other researchers experimented with cartilage regeneration and, with the help of a biodegradable mold and bovine ...

Doctors have successfully transplanted a 3D-printed ear made from human cells onto the face of a 20-year-old woman who was born with a misshapen ear, a notable breakthrough in tissue engineering with ...

Doctors and a tech company have successfully teamed up to implant a 3D printed ear onto a patient for the first time. The patient was a 20-year-old woman with microtia, a condition in which a person ...

The ears are a pair of sensory organs whose primary functions are hearing and balance. They are divided into three portions: the outer ear, the middle ear, and the inner ear. Each has an intricate ...

Using state-of-the-art tissue engineering techniques and a 3D printer, researchers have assembled a replica of an adult human ear that looks and feels natural. The study offers the promise of grafts ...
