Harvard University research group developed a 3D printed heart organ chip

Washington, October 24 - Harvard University's John Paulson Institute of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS) released a press release on the 24th that a research team at the college has developed a new 3D printing technology that can print documents with integrated transmission Sensory function of the organ chip. Their first-print heart chip is fast to assemble and customize, making data collection easier and opening up new avenues for drug discovery. Related research published in "Nature · Materials" magazine.

Organ chip is considered as a revolutionary technology in life science research, and has broad application prospects in the fields of medicine, research and clinical drug design. But organ chip manufacturing and data collection is not an easy task, not only for the manufacturing environment is extremely demanding, the manufacturing process is very complicated, costly, time-consuming and laborious.

Chip there are many "small well"

This time, SEAS research team to use advanced digital manufacturing technology, the development of new organ chip manufacturing methods. They integrated a flexible strain sensor with human tissue microarchitecture and developed six different "inks," then used 3D printing technology to print heart chips through a single, continuous manufacturing process. There are many "wells" on this chip, each with its own independent organization and integrated sensors. With this chip, a variety of heart tissues can be studied.

Each "Slim" has its own organization and integrated sensors.
