Café Scientifique: 3D Bioprinting – Shaping the Future of Health

Thursday, May 4, 2017
Telus World of Science, 1455 Quebec St, Vancouver, BC, V6A 3Z7
5:30 PM – 8:00 PM

Imagine a world where drugs are developed without the use of animals, where doctors know how a patient will react to a drug before prescribing it and where patients can have a replacement organ 3D-printed using their own cells, without dealing with long donor waiting lists or organ rejection. 3D bioprinting could enable this world.

Join us for a lively discussion and dessert as experts (featuring Core’s Dr. Julie Robillard) in the field discuss the exciting potential of 3D bioprinting and the ethical issues raised when you can print human tissues on demand. This is also a rare opportunity to see a bioprinter live in action!
