Abstract
A system for printing biomaterials can include a mixer having a longitudinal axis. The mixer can define a flow channel that extends along the longitudinal axis. The mixer can have at least one inlet configured to receive a first printable biomaterial and a second printable biomaterial and an outlet spaced from the inlet along the longitudinal axis. One or more mixing elements positioned within the flow channel between the inlet(s) and the outlet of the mixer. The mixing element(s) can be configured to control a spatial distribution of the first and second printable biomaterials across and along the longitudinal axis.
