THEORETICAL SESSIONS

   – Basic principles of Bioprinting and 3D/4D printing in health.
   – Bio-inks and Biomaterials used in printing:
         • Study of biocompatibility.
         • Adhesion.
         • Hydrogels formation.
         • Degradability.
   – Bioprinting and associated technologies:
         • Bioprinters.
         • Applied Rheology and rheometry for Bioprinting.
         • Predictive tools (FlowTips).
         • Mechanical characterization (tissue, hydrogel, scaffolds).
   – Cell culture for bioprinting:
         • Cell types
         • 2D pre-impression cell culture
         • Post-3D printing cell culture systems.
   – Maturation and characterization of bioprinted tissues:
         • Sterility.
         • Histology.
         • Cell growth and quality monitoring.
 

PRACTICAL SESSIONS

   – Case study and examples of applications:
         • Skin printing – connective tissue (extrusion).
         • Epithelium printing – cell sheet (inkjet).
   – Bioprinter and tools demonstration:
         • Hands-on-with 6-axes robot bioprinter BioAssemblyBot and multi component bioprinting.
         • Bioprinted object scale : big vs. small.
         • Viscotec vs. pneumatique.
         • Shear stress effect related to cell printing.
         • Tissue characterization (cytometry, DMA, Histology).
