Med-Tech Innovation February 26, 2024

3D bioprinting has achieved a landmark breakthrough with researchers at the University of Wisconsin Madison recently developing a novel method for printing functional human brain tissue. Likewise, at the Vienna University of Technology, researchers have advanced in generating replacement tissue for potentially treating injured cartilage through lab-based 3D printing. These developments signify a crucial turning point in regenerative medicine, laying the foundation for the fabrication of intricate tissue structures, says data and analytics company GlobalData.

GlobalData’s technology innovation intelligence tool “Technology Foresights” indicates a consistent increase in the number of patents associated with 3D bioprinting over the years, totalling 2,868 between 2015 and 2023. The addition of 24 new companies to the patent landscape in 2023, bringing the total to...
