3D BIOPRINTING: TRANSFORMING MEDICAL IMAGES INTO HUMAN TISSUE
May 21, 2024 – Mayo Clinic researchers are using technology to produce tissue models of different body parts to study damaged or diseased tissues and organs. They envision a day when a 3D bioprinter could mold living cells into a therapy or cure for complex disorders.
“3D bioprinters are just like the 3D printers that print small plastic toys or parts. Instead of using hard plastics or metals to construct a part or prototype, 3D bioprinters use biocompatible materials containing living cells to print three dimensional structures of tissue that could be used to improve human health,” says Kevin Dicker, Ph.D., a bioprinting expert and a process development staff scientist for the Center for Regenerative Biotherapeutics in Arizona. “Bioprinters are tools to accelerate research in the field of tissue engineering.”

6 WAYS TO CUT EHR BURDENS FOR PHYSICIANS
When Jane F. Fogg, MD, MPH, first became a doctor, patient charts were on paper. She looked forward to the rise of the EHR, believing electronic charting could help modernize the care she provided while also empowering herself and her patients.
Funny how things turn out.
“EHRs are a source of burnout—we have lots and lots of great evidence that has helped us understand the low usability and the high work burden that it adds to physicians,” Dr. Fogg, senior physician adviser at the AMA, said during a boot camp held at the Association’s Chicago headquarters. “Why that happened is that we didn’t spend the time and the care to design the EHR as we would design everything we do—our team-based care, our clinical practice, evidence-based medicine.”
