"Advancements in 3D Printing Human Brain Tissue for Research"
Researchers have developed a new 3D bioprinting process to create functional human neural tissues, addressing previous issues with integrating neurons and supportive cells. By using a fibrin hydrogel and printing layers horizontally, they successfully produced neural tissue resembling that of the human brain. While the approach has limitations, it offers significant advantages for studying brain function and pathologies, potentially advancing research in this field.
