Technology involving printable biomaterial such as skin cells seems like something out of a science fiction novel or a film. However, Thomas Boland, Ph.D., professor of metallurgical and materials engineering, has been involved in this breakthrough in biomaterials research at The University of Texas at El Paso.
The implication of this research is invaluable, said Laura Bosworth-Bucher. She, along with her company Tevido Biodevices, is looking into advancing Boland’s technique to make it commercially available.
