Scientists are 3D printing whole cancer tumors from scratch

We’ve seen 3D-printed cells, organs, and even body parts over the last few years. But in Philadelphia, a team of scientists is printing cancerous tumors—modeling the very things that are threatening to kill patients in order to understand how to quell them.

It’s becoming more and more common to use 3D printers to print “sheets” of cells in the lab, including cancerous ones. These 2D panels can be used to test new therapies, but they aren’t perfect: A tumor is a whole other animal, with its own architecture and peculiarities, which can make it tough to predict how the real thing will react to treatment.
