3d bioprinting of structure cell aggregates and organoids

Abstract

Additive manufacturing methods, additive manufacturing systems, and products thereof are provided. The method comprises depositing a bioink into a support material based on a first computer model of an object, thereby forming a first portion of an object in the support material. The bioink comprises cells. The method comprises depositing a structure material into the support material based on the first computer model of an object, thereby forming a first portion of a scaffold for the object. The structure material is different from the bioink and the structure material comprises a polymer. The method comprises repeating the depositing of the bioink and the structure material as necessary to additively form the object and the scaffold within the object.
