We are pleased to share that the Institute for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (iTERM) recently hosted a captivating seminar on “Novel bioprinting techniques and their emerging applications.” Our esteemed speaker, Dr. Cyrus Beh, shed light on the exciting advancements in the field of bioprinting and its potential impact on regenerative medicine. 

During the seminar, Dr. Beh, a Group Leader at the Bioprocessing Technology Institute at A*STAR, Singapore, discussed the interdisciplinary nature of bioprinting, which combines biology, engineering, and materials science. He shared his team’s work in developing soft material bioprinting capabilities and overcoming challenges in forming functional tissues. Dr. Beh also highlighted the emerging non-medical applications of bioprinting, including its role in cultured meat production and biomanufacturing.

Dr. Beh’s extensive expertise in biomedical engineering and bioprinting was evident throughout his talk. With a Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University and experience as a Research Fellow at the Molecular Engineering Laboratory, he has made significant contributions to the field. His primary research interest lies in the development of 3D printing technologies and materials for biomedical applications, including the fabrication of complex structures using soft hydrogel biomaterials and strategies for vascularization.

The seminar took place on October 19, 2023, and garnered great interest from professionals and researchers in the field. Attendees gained valuable insights into the latest advancements in bioprinting and its potential implications for regenerative medicine.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Dr. Cyrus Beh for sharing his expertise and delivering an enlightening seminar. His dedication to pushing the boundaries of bioprinting and his contributions to the field are commendable.

Stay tuned for more exciting events and opportunities at iTERM as we continue to explore cutting-edge research in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
