Researchers Create World’s First 3D-printed Bionic Organ

Using 3D printers to create biological structures has become widespread.

Printing electronics has made similar advances, particularly for low-cost, low-power disposable items. The first successful combination of these two technologies has recently been reported by a group of researchers at Princeton.

They report in a recent issue of ACS NANO Letters that their new device can receive a wide range of frequencies using a coiled antenna printed with silver nanoparticles.
