Topic: “In Situ Bioprinting and Biofabrication Strategies for Next-Generation Regenerative Medicine”

Summary:

This presentation will highlight advances in 3D bioprinting and biofabrication that are shaping the future of regenerative medicine. It will explore emerging approaches in high-throughput and in situ bioprinting, bioink and biomaterial engineering, and the use of cellular building blocks for creating functional tissue constructs. Particular emphasis will be placed on how these technologies can enable scalable tissue fabrication, patient-specific tissue repair, and more clinically relevant regenerative solutions. The talk will also address key challenges in reproducibility, manufacturing, and translation, while presenting future perspectives on bridging innovative biofabrication technologies with real-world biomedical and clinical applications.
