3D Printed Human Kidney

Humans could be fitted with kidneys made on 3D PRINTERS thanks to Australian researchers who have already grown miniature organs in labs.


  1. Researchers from the University of Queensland grew a tiny kidney in a dish.
  2. U.S. bio-printing company have signed a deal with the researchers to develop the kidneys for drugs testing and potential 3D printing.
  3. The kidney is 'the hardest thing to try and build', said Professor Little.
"Surgeon Anthony Atala demonstrates an early-stage experiment that could someday solve the organ-donor problem: a 3D printer that uses living cells to output a transplantable kidney. Using similar technology, Dr. Atala's young patient Luke Massella received an engineered bladder 10 years ago; we meet him onstage."

Here is the full TED presentation by Dr Anthony Atala:

    ...3D Bioprinting-Immortality (organ vascular network)... ((is it the vascular-capillary tree of an organ an aleatory "tangle"?, or is it a structure with symmetry, equidistance among capillary bifurcations always identical in each organ?. How would see it (see it with current technology) both capillary networks, blood and lymphatic, of 2 equal organs if they could been isolated from organ?, probably they are aleatory tangles sufficient for to do its work: in the blood-capillaries leave go out (suitable porosity...) plasma with O2 and nutrients towards, and CO2 which go into from, the intercellular space...and in the lymphatic-capillaries leave go into the surplus lymph with cellular refuses from intercellular space... Could then be used adapted centrifuges machines of sweet cotton, using some class of biodegradable and in water insoluble "sugar", and once formed the 2 different "cotton" tangles (blood and lymphatic) submerge they in a solution of cells with avidity for adhere to yarn-food from the tangle?...forming it the 2 labyrinthine capillary networks of hollow cellular micro-tubes to disappears the within biodegradable binder yarn?))...

    ...future travel (without false freedom)... Silence is golden?..."rossse-tie" passive homo-vice, "bluesss skysss-tie" active homo-vice from the "facestifffinger". The apostles of the inhuman homo-vice, with their propagator acolytes "maricones" and "tortilleras" in news TV installed announcing "happy" their days of "pride", infecting colors, numbers, words... Nobody yet perceives what it pretend the fetid homo-vices ("maricones") with from technology use degenerated: go artificially pregnant and throw their "sons" by where go out the fetid excrement to that unworthy and horrible ill world, a world without women where nobody will can live with dignity. Homo-vices, religious, have the control of all Global Media: Internet, TV, radio, movies, newspapers...see, besides of look, constantly in Hollywood-movies, South American TV-novels and TV programs role of evilness against beautiful innocent actress, role of "goodness" for man-actor, violence, crime and insults against women, for that after will be reality passing from fiction to real life (what´s to see, is what´s to do). And nobody in the entire World says anything, nor do people, nor do politicians, nor do nobody. Only hypocrisy and lies and silence, with "marymales" occupying almost each National Presidency reclaiming "free sex orientation"...because if anybody says anything does not can have a job, or something worse... Silence is golden?, NOT. It´s time for to say the truth, for the wellness of Future´s Humankind.

    Meanwhile the World looks to elsewhere... Giant HORNETS...are threatening to all Humankind...it is necessary that the human beings, instead of destroy among them, destroy to those dangerous insects of huge exponential growing...seriously beginning already, at present,

    Nobel Prize physiology 2017... 3D Bioprinting-Immortality (biological timers)... Forever young with modified Biological Timers... Which are the biological timers?, where are them? (genes, hypothalamus...), how functioning them?, how can modify them (telomerase...) for maintenance the hormones production, enzymes, cellular regeneration...all Eternity at same level of the 18 years old?... Have to accelerate Research about Memory and the Space´s Colonization... Immortality comes...
