Lee Cronin: Wydrukuj swoje leki

Chemik Lee Cronin pracuje nad drukarką 3D, która zamiast przedmiotów jest w stanie drukować związki chemiczne. Jakie jest potencjalne zastosowanie tego urządzenia? Drukowanie  własnych leków przy pomocy chemicznych tuszów.

Chemistry and digital technology are converging to create 3D printers that can produce molecules on demand. In one lab, researchers have prototyped a system that prints both chemical vessels and targeted molecules, using universal 'chemical inks.' This approach could make it possible to manufacture medicine at home or anywhere it's needed, simply by downloading a blueprint. On-the-fly drug creation could transform healthcare, making treatments hyper-personalized and widely accessible.
