Held in conjunction with Tissue Engineering, Biofabrication & 3D-Bioprinting in Life Sciences
16 Mar 2016, at 13:30-16:00 in Boston, USA
Training Course Summary
3D-printing has recently been used to fabricate biological models and to create living tissue. 3D-bioprinting is uniquely suited for mimicking anatomical complexity and heterogeneity present in many tissues. This training course will cover the historical background and emerging trends of optimization of 3D-printing for biological applications, will provide an overview of the various bioprinting technology platforms being successfully applied in tissue engineering, and will discuss companies in this sector actively commercializing bioprinting technologies (bioprinters and bioinks).
A must-attend course for researchers from academic institutions as well as companies seeking a hands-on understanding of the 3D-Printing field from the technical as well as commercial perspective.
Topics Covered in this Course
- Historical Background of 3D-Bioprinting
- Trajectory of this Emerging Field and Milestones
- Technology Background of 3D-Printing in the Life Sciences
- Approaches, Technology Platforms and Methodologies for 3D-Printing
- 3D-Bioprinting for Tissue Engineering
- Commercial Trends in 3D-Printing in the Life Sciences
- Companies in the Sector
Who Should Attend
- Academic Researchers Contemplating Entry into the Field
- Experienced Researchers Seeking a Broad Picture of the Field
- Industry Participants from Companies seeking to Understand the Technologies and Approaches
- Investors Surveying this Expanding Field for Investment Opportunities
All course attendees receive the presentations and supplementary course materials including reviews of the field in electronic format -- An excellent resource for R&D plans, business plans, and as reference materials. In the evening of March 16, 2016, all course attendees participate in a cocktail networking reception enabling engagement as well as collaborations/partnering and business development opportunities.
