Workshops

Workshop #1: ‘3D Bioprinting of Tissue Models for Drug Discovery’

One of the applications of bioprinting, which is currently even more advanced than the creation of tissues for transplantation, is the biofabrication of in vitro tissue models for drug discovery and toxicology. This Workshop will bring together experts active in this area to discuss both the progress made so far, but also the challenges the field is still facing. In particular, we will address the specifics of bioprinting as an in vitro biofabrication method, the arguments for choosing between scaffold-dependent and scaffold-free bioprinting, the challenges for scaling up the current bioprinting methods to high-throughput drug discovery assays, practical aspects related to testing of chemical libraries, the use of quantitative microscopy 3D imaging, and directions for future development of this field.

Workshop #2: ‘The Federal Funding Landscape for Biofabrication Research and Commercialization and the Power of ARMI’

Join OSU and ARMI | BioFabUSA at the Federal Funding & Power of ARMI | BioFabUSA Dinner & Learn on Monday, October 21st. Biofabrication is a rapidly growing area that is now rapidly transitioning cell-, organoid-, and tissue-based strategies to clinical therapies for personalized drug screening and regenerative medicine. Understanding where one’s research and/or product is in its technology readiness level as well as its place in the overall biofabrication ecosystem is vital in developing a funding strategy. The workshop will cover tips and best practices for securing Federal funding through a variety of sources. Representatives of the following organizations will share important funding information: Department of Defense, NIH, NSF, The Geneva Foundation, and ARMI | BioFabUSA. To round off the workshop there will be a deep dive into the benefits and resources available through the power of ARMI, whose mission is to make practical the large-scale manufacture of engineered tissues and tissue-related technologies, to benefit existing industries and grow new ones
