3D-Printed Placenta-on-a-Chip Mimics Structure of Placental Membrane

Researchers at TU Wien in Vienna have developed a placenta-on-a-chip microfluidic device which uses a femtosecond laser-based 3D-printing method to create a customized hydrogel membrane. The printed membrane is populated with placental cells and mimi...
