What is Bioprinting?
• The construction of tissues constructs using computer-aided, specialized 3D printers.
• Represents a paradigm shift in tissue engineering that extends beyond spatial organization considerations inherent in seeding cells onto a biodegradable scaffold.
• Incorporates temporal aspects of development that rely on recreating complex environments required for complete cell maturation & the achievement of full functionality.

Bioprinting: A BeginningTISSUE ENGINEERINGVolume 12, Number 4, 2006VLADIMIR MIRONOV, M.D., Ph.D., Dr. NUNO REIS, D.Phil., and BRIAN DERBY, Ph.D.ABSTRACTAn increasing demand for directed assembly of biologically relevant materials, with prescribed three dimensional hierarchical organizations, is stimulating technology developments with the ultimate goal of re-creating multicellular tissues and organs de novo. Existing techniques, mostly adapted from other applications or fields of research, are capable of independently meeting partial requirements for engineering biological or biomimetic structures, but their integration toward organ engineering is proving difficult. Inspired by recent developments in material transfer processes operating at all relevant length scales–from nano to macro–which are amenable to biological elements, a new research field of bioprinting and biopatterning has emerged. Here we present a short review regarding the framework, state of the art, and perspectives of this new field, based on the findings presented at a recent international workshop.
[The First International Workshop on Bioprinting & Biopatterning was held at the University of Manchester (United Kingdom) in September 2004]

Scales in Biology• Biological world is typically experienced on the "macro" scale. • Plants, animals, and other humans are usually centimeters to meters in
size and can be seen with the naked eye. • Moving down to the cellular level, we start seeing cells on the order of
one to tens of micrometers (one-millionth of a meter). • Stepping down yet another size scale, biological components such as DNA
and cell membranes are on the order of 2-3 nanometers (one-billionth of a meter)
• Smallest cellular life-forms, the bacteria of the genus Mycoplasma, are around 200 nm long
• Proteins, such as antibodies, are 5-10 nanometers in size. • Since all living things share these common components (DNA, proteins,
and membranes), biology is, and always has been, living at the nanoscale.

Conundrums
• The complex interplay between biomaterial scaffolds, growth factors, and local cell populations during development & healing has been utilized to design constructs that attempt to promote these interactions to restore the original architecture and function of complex tissues.
• To date, ‘‘ideal’’ tissue engineering techniques have not yet been developed to support the regeneration of complex biologic structures.
