On November 8, 2015, 3D Bioprinting Solutions had for the first time presented official data on printing a mouse thyroid. Presentation was made as part of the international conference on biofabrication held in Utrecht, the Netherlands.
The first International Bioprinting Congress took place in Singapore. Vladimir Mironov, Chief Scientific Officer Laboratory for Biotechnological Research «3D Bioprinting Solutions», was one of the key speakers with his “4D bioprinting: biofabrication of tissue-engineered constructions using intelligent selfcomposing biomaterials” report
Feb 10, 2016. Could transplantable, 3D printed human organs be a reality in the next 15 years? The a member of the Russian Skolkovo Foundation believes the answer is yes, and that one of the country’s own 3D bioprinting companies is on track to deliver.
Mironov, whose company hit the headlines last year – and again this week – for its successful creation of a mouse thyroid construct using a 3D bioprinter, declined to give away any trade secrets of the new tissue gun to the audience of an international bioprinting conference held at the Skolkovo Foundation on Thursday, but offered a comprehensive overview of developments in what has been described as the third industrial revolution.
A company in the Skolkovo Innovation Center made an artificial thyroid gland using a 3D printer, which was then successfully implanted into a live mouse, Skolkovo’s Vice President Kirill Kaem said
As one of the fastest growing technologies across several industries, including manufacturing, medicine, aerospace and even retail, every single month and even week seems to bring with it groundbreaking discoveries or scientific advances in 3D printing processes, materials, and goods.
A Moscow laboratory has conducted the first successful organ translation using a unique Russian 3D-printing technology. The breakthrough could potentially help millions suffering from thyroid disorders – and paves the way for printing other human organs.
The budding industry of 3D bioprinting took a massive leap forward last week after a Russian bioprinting company announced a series of successful tests on a 3D-printed mouse thyroid. Speaking at the Biofabrication 2015 conference in Utrecht, Netherlands, 3D Bioprinting Solutions head of research Vladimir Mironov officially presented the highly anticipated results, shedding light on the company’s production process.
In November of 2014, a Russian company by the name of 3D Bioprinting Solutions made a bold claim: they intended to produce the first 3D printed animal thyroid gland by March 2015. In March, they delivered on their claim, right on schedule, with their announcement that they had successfully printed a thyroid gland for a mouse. At that time, the company had not yet attempted to transplant the gland into a living mouse.
Last March, we wrote about Professor Vladimir Mironov’s 3D printed medical breakthrough: the world’s first 3D printed transplantable organ, to be used on a mouse. This week, it was reported that not only did the mouse thyroid transplant surgery go relatively smoothly, but that the 3D printed thyroid gland is completely functional.
