Researchers in the UI Center for Computer aided Design's Advanced Manufacturing Technology (AMTecH) group are refining equipment and techniques that may result in the 3D printing of human organs and tissue some five or 10 years from now. In this screen shot Howard Chen, doctoral student in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering and developer of the multi-arm bioprinter, builds multicellular structures using the device.
