目前有數十萬人在器官移植的名單上，等待如腎、心及肝臟的重要器官來挽救他們的生命。很不幸地，捐贈者的器官數目遠遠地供不應求。如果無需用等待的方式，我們能從零開始製造全新客製化器官呢？塔尼卡·瓊斯探索了生物列印──它是再生醫學一個新的分支。

Bioprinting uses living cells and hydrogels as 'bioink' to print tissues and organs, potentially transforming organ transplantation. While hundreds of thousands wait for donor organs, scientists can already print simple body parts like blood vessels, menisci, and even bladders. Complex organs remain a challenge, as researchers work to replicate intricate structures and supply nutrients to every cell. The technology opens the door to personalized medicine and the possibility of enhancing human abilities.
