A consortium led by Wake Forest and Rice University secured 24.8 million dollars from ARPA-H to develop bioprinted, vascularized kidney tissues.

Originally reported by news-medical.net

A consortium led by Wake Forest and Rice University secured 24.8 million dollars from ARPA-H to develop bioprinted, vascularized kidney tissues. This five-year initiative aims to manufacture personalized organs using a patient’s own cells for 120,000 people on waiting lists. The project focuses on creating a library of complex bioinks that mimic tissue environments and sustain cell viability. This shifts the healthcare model from organ matching to on-demand manufacturing without the need for lifelong immunosuppressive drugs. 🧬🏥 #Bioprinting #3DPrinting #HealthTech #ARPAH
