OverviewWelcome to the Second Annual Tissue Engineering, Biofabrication and 3D-Bioprinting Conference.
The fields of Tissue Engineering and 3D-Bioprinting are important for ultimately realizing the full potential of regenerative medicine. The potential to "3D-print" tissues and organs is gaining extensive interest and this conference brings together the academic as well as industry stakeholders in these expanding fields.
From a technology/methodology perspective, this conference addresses Tissue Engineering as well as Biofabrication and Bioprinting as we explore the latest developments in this field. Indeed, the field of Synthetic Biology currently with many ramifications and application areas is an important component of the broader Biofabrication space and therefore an entire conference track is devoted to this expanding field.
The focus of this conference track is to bring forth the advances in the research and industrialization of tissue engineering and 3D-bioprinting fields.
There will be a session focusing on the Clinical Translation of Tissue Engineering as means to Provide a Current State of the Landscape and Trajectory for the Future.
Posters from delegates are welcomed as a means to disseminate the most up-to-date research and commercial applications which complement the presentations from the leaders in these fields.
A co-located exhibition brings forth the technologies and commercial products in the Tissue Engineering, 3D-Bioprinting and Biofabrication fields and features companies large and small showcasing innovation.

The speakers at this conference track represent the cutting-edge of innovation in the rapidly-expanding fields of Tissue Engineering and 3D-Bioprinting. A significant source of innovation in these fields is the construction of biological structures that can be deployed for regenerative medicine and tissue replacement.
All conference delegates receive electronic copies of the most up-to-date publications, reviews and presentations focusing on the tissue engineering and bioprinting fields. This excellent resource is invaluable for R&D presentations, business plans, investor presentations and complements the technical content presented at this conference.
This conference presents key opinion leaders (KOLs), established academic researchers, as well as young investigators -- podium presentations are derived from a broad section of these fields highlighting the most up-to-date science and innovation.
Additionally, companies in the space and industry participants who are seeking to develop and commercialize tissue engineering and 3D-bioprinting are a key feature of the content presented in this conference.
