3D-bioprinted human tissue and the path toward clinical translation

Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is a transformative technology for engineering tissues for disease modeling and drug screening and building tissues and organs for repair, regeneration, and replacement. In this Viewpoint, we discuss technological advances in 3D bioprinting, key remaining challenges, and essential milestones toward clinical translation. Description This Viewpoint discusses current opportunities and challenges in the 3D bioprinting of tissues and organs as it advances toward clinical translation.
