3D Biofabrication Laboratory
3D 바이오 프린팅 기술은 다양한 종류의 세포, 생체 재료 및 생체 분자 등을 이용하여 컴퓨터 디자인된 3차원 구조물의 제작을 가능하게 한다. 이러한 기술적 특징은 여러 종류의 세포로 구성된 장기와 유사한 생체 모방형 구조물의 제작을 가능하게 한다. 이미 많은 연구를 통하여 생체 모방형 구조물이 인공 조직 및 장기의 재생 및 손상된 장기의 기능 회복에 매우 우수한 성능을 가짐이 증명되었다. 본 연구팀은 3D 바이오 프린팅을 이용하여 생체 모방형 구조물 제작을 위한 고 정밀 공정 기술 및 관련 응용 기술에 대하여 연구한다. 관련 응용 기술로는 바이오 프린팅 기술을 이용한 인공 조직 및 장기 재생, 신약 검증 용 진단 칩 개발, 질병 모델 개발 등이 활발히 진행되고 있다.
Bioprinting technology enables the fabrication of computer-designed 3D microarchitectures consisting of multiple types of living cells, biomaterials, and biomolecules, making it possible to produce real organ/tissue-like cellular construct. Many researchers have reported that biomimetic design has a great effect not only on artificial tissue formations, but also on functional recovery of damaged organs. Our team is developing new 3D bioprinting systems and processes to build 3D precise cellular constructs with biomimetic architectures. Based on the technology, we are also conducting various studies on bio-applications such as artificial tissue/organ regeneration, wound healing, disease model, and body-on-a-chip.
