Kidney 3D in vitro models through bioprinting
At the Complex Tissue Regeneration department, we work hard to bridge the gap towards the dream of organs bioprinting. Step by step, we are now progressing towards understanding more and more in depth the requirements to bioprint different kidney cells, either derived from pluripotent stem cells or of adult species.

Bioprinting through Levitation
Magnetic levitation offers the possibility to place cells in a precise position in space through controlling the magnetic forces applied to magnetized cells. This new biofabrication technique, at the interface between bioprinting and bioassembly, provides new ways to create large-scale biological constructs that can be used for regenerative medicine purposes.

The awarded project focuses on the development of new polymeric materials and hydrogels based on dynamic chemical bonds that ensure that the materials react to different conditions during processing. This allows optimal properties of the 3D-printed product to be obtained. In addition, end products can also be made with switchable properties. The project is a collaboration between Eindhoven University of Technology, Maastricht University, DSM, Xilloc and Brightlands Materials Center (BMC), a public-private research center in which scientists and industry specialists work together on sustainable technological innovations in the field of polymer materials.
