Organovo Science

To create useful tissue for repair and transplantation, Organovo strives to reproduce the tissue microarchitecture that is essential to proper in vivo function, including the vasculature required for blood flow and oxygenation.

To achieve the goal of fully biological tissue constructs that fully match native structure, Organovo uses a breakthrough organ printing technology. By marrying a knowledge of biophysics and cell biology with the precision of computer aided design and high precision deposition, we can recreate the microarchitecture of even the most complex human tissue. By precisely placing cells with an organ printer, and providing them with the proper natural developmental cues, the cells do exactly what they do in nature: they self assemble into fully formed, functional tissue.
