Of Course People Are Walking Around With 3D-Printed Ears In China

Missing an ear? Not a problem. Not in China, anyway. Researchers in China are using 3D-printers to print ear cartilage samples made from real tissue. And they’re not stopping at the ears – why would they?

The printer they’ve invented, Regenovo, can produce an ear cartilage sample, or a liver sample, in less than an hour. So if you find yourself in need of an extra ear, or an extra chunk of liver to assist you with that drinking habit, you don’t need to worry… China’s got you sorted, china.

According to the researchers, 3D-printed organs could become a common part of medicine in the next 10 to 20 years.
