New 3D printing technique creates some of the most intricate biomedical structures yet

Handheld surgical ‘pen’ prints human stem cells

In a landmark proof-of-concept experiment, Australian researchers have used a handheld 3D printing pen to ‘draw’ human stem cells in freeform patterns with extremely high survival rates. The device, developed out of collaboration between ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science (ACES) researchers and orthopaedic surgeons at St Vincent’s Hospital, Melbourne, is designed to allow

St Vincent’s Hospital Sydney, Australia Transplants First Circulatory Death Human Heart

The St Vincent’s Hospital Heart Lung Transplant Unit has carried out the world’s first distant procurement of hearts donated after circulatory death (DCD). These hearts were subsequently resuscitated and then successfully transplanted into patients with end-stage heart failure. Transplant Units until now have relied solely on donor hearts from brain-dead patients whose hearts are still

Australian medical find may lead to donor heart breakthrough

The waiting list for donor hearts could be slashed by pioneering research from Australian doctors that could increase the supply of the organs by up to 50 per cent. A team from the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute and St Vincent’s Hospital in Sydney has found a way to protect hearts that have already stopped

Medical breakthrough gives hope for disabled to regain use of limbs

Scientists hope to give people back the use of disabled arms and legs after a world-first breakthrough allowing them to regrow the missing nerves in rats. Trials of the technology are still in the early stages, but ­better-than-expected ­results raise prospects of saving limbs lost in accidents or eventually overcoming paraplegia and quadriplegia. St Vincent’s

UOW technology in stem cell breakthrough

Melbourne scientists have been able to “grow” human cartilage from stem cells with the help of 3D printing technologies developed at the University of Wollongong. Scientists at the university’s Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science (ACES) developed the 3D scaffolds which were used to grow the cartilage cells, or chondrocytes. The medical
