Daniel Aili, Associate Professor in the Division of Biophysics and Bioengineering at Linköping University, explained: "Bioprinting is a new and exciting technology to manufacture three-dimensional tissue-mimicking cell cultures. It has been a major problem to develop the bioink required, i.e. a material that can...
