Podcasts about Body Worlds

This week Ashley is discussing the "Body Worlds" exhibitions, which have sparked controversy due to concerns about the ethical sourcing of the bodies. Then, Lacey has an update about the Slenderman case. We also read some listener write-ins from last week's poll question, "Have you ever seen a dead body?" This week, we're wondering: Should the woman in today's story share her lottery winnings? Would you?What wacky thing happened to you this week?

In this episode, I talk about some of my favorite museums in the Netherlands. While many people know famous museums like the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum, there are plenty of lesser-known museums that are definitely worth visiting. Join me as I tell you more about a few of these unique gems, including Body Worlds, Corpus, the Railway Museum, Castle de Haar and the Kröller-Müller Museum. These museums offer a different way to discover the Netherlands, whether you're interested in art, history, the human body, trains, or castles!You can read along here: ⁠https://easydutchonline.com/episodes/podcast-Afl-55Support me: ⁠buy me a coffee⁠Email me: info@easydutchonline.com

Jamie Decker, who founded Experience Anatomy in 2016, visited Discovery Place Science in Charlotte to see Body Worlds created by Dr. Gunther von Hagens.  Jamie had an interest in anatomy ahead of the trip, but having the opportunity to experience an extensive exhibition showcasing plastinated human cadavers and specimens stirred something within her she didn't know was there: passion.  In college, Jamie studied Funeral Service and Mortuary Science. At a plastination conference in Toledo, she received a personal invitation from von Hagens to study under his direction at Gubener Plastinate GmbH. She spent the following three years commuting between Germany and the US to complete an intensive internship that developed and refined her self-efficacy as an anatomist and educator, and significantly extended her knowledge of plastination. To this day, Jamie has the distinction of being the only American who has extensively trained under von Hagens' at his plastination company. In 2015 Jamie reengaged with Discovery Place Science to serve as a scientist-in-residence during the six-month run of Body Worlds & The Cycle of Life. Within five months of the exhibition closing, in October 2016 Jamie established Experience Anatomy. Today, Experience Anatomy encompasses a fully-equipped training venue and mobile wet lab, deploys anatomy resources of unrivaled quality worldwide, and engages a team of expert Anatomists and Program Specialists. Serving numerous industries with courses of exceptional standard, Experience Anatomy has the power to revolutionize health and life science education.

If you're training to become a physician, your first patient is usually dead. In fact, "first patient" is what med students call the human cadavers that they work on in anatomy class — when they first learn to make careful incisions, and lay eyes on the beautiful intricacies of bone, muscle, blood vessels, and organs that make our bodies work.Human cadavers have long played a crucial role in medicine and science. They not only teach generations of doctors about the human body — they allow researchers to learn valuable lessons about everything from the causes of rare diseases to the effects of how we live our lives. But how do bodies end up on dissection tables in the first place? What can they still teach us? And why do people choose to donate their remains?On this episode, we explore bodies donated to science — how they're used, why they're so important, and why people make this choice for their remains. We hear stories about one woman's mission to recruit future medical cadavers, and how 19th century medical schools got involved in body snatching. We'll take a closer look at a program that connects med students to the families of their "first patients," and find out why one firefighter has opted for a future in the Body Worlds exhibition.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

As often happens, she conflated the “LGBTQ+” category with homosexuality, and relied on a quirky outlier study rather than the more reliable and standard measurements from places like the Williams Institute or Gallup. Williams says 1.7 percent of Americans are homosexual, i.e. gay or lesbian. Gallup says it's 2.4 percent. The trouble, of course, with the LGBTQIA+ category is that almost 60 percent are bisexual, and the “Queer” category can include heterosexuals as well. As a way of polling actual, same-sex attracted gays and lesbians, it's useless. And designed to be useless.Note too Gallup's percentage of “LGBTQIA+” people who define themselves as “queer”. It's 1.8 percent of us. And yet that word, which is offensive and triggering to many, and adopted by the tiniest fraction of actual homosexuals, is now regarded by the mainstream media as the right way to describe all of us. In the podcast, you can see that Cat simply assumes that “queer” is now used universally — because the activists and academics who form her environment have co-opted it. She readily sees how that could be the case, when we discussed it. I wish the MSM would do the same: stop defining all gays the way only 1.8 percent of the “LGBTQ+” “community” do. Of course they won't. They're far more interested in being woke than telling the truth.Browse the Dishcast archive for another convo you might enjoy (the first 102 episodes are free in their entirety — subscribe to get everything else).

Graham Whiteside was born into his healthcare and education career. His father, Frank Whiteside, was a British Royal Army Medical Corps, State Registered Nurse that used to practice his medical talks & demonstration for troops with Graham as his audience. He would assist his father when he provided medical cover at rodeos & gymkhana's and trusted his father to set him on fire for a simulated Military Field Kitchen Explosion in 1985. Graham went on to train and work for 15 years, as a General & Cardiothoracic ICU and Psychiatric Nurse. In 2000, Graham earned his Bachelors Degree in Nursing Science with First Class Honors at the  and subsequently pivoted in 2001 into medical device sales. In 2006, Graham's fascination with education led him to a healthcare simulation company, Limbs & Things, which brought him to the United States in 2008. Since then, he has enjoyed leadership roles with companies that have enabled him to support special interest groups aimed at improving education, clinical practice and patient safety, including Limbs & Things, B-Line Medical, SIMnext, the Society for Simulation in Healthcare, SimGHOSTS, the American College of Surgeons, and the Global Network for Simulation in Healthcare. Culminating in him contributing work to three medical simulation-related textbooks. In 2015, Graham's desire to support improvements in health care education led him to partner with , the creator of real human specimens preserved through plastination. In 2018, the relationship was formalized with the establishment of Anatomic Excellence, which serves as the exclusive full range agent for the acquisition of  in the US, Canada and the Caribbean.

On this week's Out and About, Dr. Mae Gilliland Wright talks about some of the exciting events, exhibitions, and celebrations taking place at the Peoria Riverfront Museum this summer.

In this episode we hear from John Troyer, author of Technologies of the Human Corpse and the Director of The Center for Death and Society at The University of Bath. We discuss the way technology is blurring the distinctions between life and death, the emergence of death studies from the 70s social and political milieu and how his own experiences of bereavement inform his research. The relationship of the dead body with technology through history, from nineteenth-century embalming machines to the death-prevention technologies of today. Death and the dead body have never been more alive in the public imagination—not least because of current debates over modern medical technology that is deployed, it seems, expressly to keep human bodies from dying, blurring the boundary between alive and dead. In this book, John Troyer examines the relationship of the dead body with technology, both material and conceptual: the physical machines, political concepts, and sovereign institutions that humans use to classify, organize, repurpose, and transform the human corpse. Doing so, he asks readers to think about death, dying, and dead bodies in radically different ways. Troyer explains, for example, how technologies of the nineteenth century including embalming and photography, created our image of a dead body as quasi-atemporal, existing outside biological limits formerly enforced by decomposition. He describes the “Happy Death Movement” of the 1970s; the politics of HIV/AIDS corpse and the productive potential of the dead body; the provocations of the Body Worlds exhibits and their use of preserved dead bodies; the black market in human body parts; and the transformation of historic technologies of the human corpse into “death prevention technologies.” The consequences of total control over death and the dead body, Troyer argues, are not liberation but the abandonment of Homo sapiens as a concept and a species. In this unique work, Troyer forces us to consider the increasing overlap between politics, dying, and the dead body in both general and specifically personal terms. Learn more about your ad choices.

We'll take a closer look at a program that connects med students to the families of their “first patients,” and find out why one firefighter has opted for a future in the Body Worlds exhibition. Also heard on this week's episode: Across the country — and the world — medical schools are facing a shortage of cadavers, a situation that has been worsened by the pandemic. Reporter Grant Hill explores the rules that govern donations, and one woman's mission to recruit future donors. Reporter Elana Gordon dug into the history of medical schools and body snatching, through the tale of “One-Eyed Joe” a legendary 19th-century horse thief whose brain went missing after his body was autopsied in prison. We chat with Ernest Talarico, a researcher and anatomy professor at Purdue University Northwest in Hammond, Indiana, about what cadavers can teach us about rare conditions.

The sisters conclude their death and spectacle series with further thoughts on the dead deprived of commemoration.  From the repository of graves on New York City's Hart Island to the erasure of historic Black cemeteries in the American South, they explore the ways in which human remains are stratified, relegated and discarded in ways that lay bare the injustice of life.Or, in the case of Body Worlds, forever plastinated and displayed for public view—without their owners' consent—in what Edward Rothstein described as an act of “aestheticized grotesqueness.”  What makes certain land and bodies sacred (or literally, saintly) while rendering others disposable? What can the living learn from the politics of remembering and forgetting remains? Sources cited include Joan Didion's South and West, Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God, Eliza Franklin's Lost Legacy Project for the UCLA Urban Humanities Initiative, Susan Sontag's "On Photography," the Equal Justice Initiative's Community Remembrance Project, Jacqueline Goldsby's A Spectacular Secret, Dorothea Lange's 1956 photographs of California's Berryessa Valley, Marita Sturkin's “The Aesthetics of Absence,” Seth Freed Wessler's 2022 ProPublica investigation “How Authorities Erased a Historical Black Cemetery in Virginia,” Robert McFarlane's 2019 New Yorker piece “The Invisible City Beneath Paris,” Melinda Hunt's Hart Island Project (www.hartisland.net), Nina Bernstein's 2016 New York Times piece “Unearthing the Secrets of New York's Mass Graves,” “Young Ruin” from 99% Invisible, and NPR's 2006 reporting on ethical concerns over Body Worlds.Cover photo of Hart Island's common trench burials is by Jacob Riis, 1890.

Ospite del PN1 di oggi è stata la biologa Marzia Bedoni per parlare della mostra "BODY WORLDS - Il Ritmo Della Vita"Nel PN1 di oggi, mercoledì 2 novembre, con Miky Boselli e Marco Vignoletti è stata ospite la biologa Marzia Bedoni per perlare della mostra BODY WORLDS - Il Ritmo Della Vita. Durante l'intervista, la biologs ha raccontato degli scandali che inizialmente ha suscitato la mostra, nati a causa dell'esposizione di corpi veri. Radio Number One è media partner di BODY WORLDS - Il Ritmo Della Vita che sarà esposta dal 4 novembre 2022 al 26 febbraio 2023 presso la stazione di Milano Centrale – Galleria dei Mosaici (QUI tutte le informazioni). L'ESPOSIZIONE - La mostra è composta da corpi interi, organi e sezioni per offrire al visitatore una visione diretta ed eccitante del corpo umano. I vari corpi, spiega la biologa Bedoni, «sono stati donati sotto volontà dei diretti interessati quando erano ancora vivi. La mostra ha anche un grande potere di sensibilizzare, ad esempio è possibile vedere i vari organi sotto gli effetti di alcool o fumo comparati a quelli di persone che invece hanno uno stile di vita sano».Per saperne di più, riascolta l'intervista!

In order to further support fascia anatomy education, the imaging of fascia has also been expanding, but until now a true visualization has been a challenge. Based on this, the teams behind the BODY WORLDS Exhibitions and the Fascia Research Society joined forces to create an interdisciplinary team with the lofty goal to produce a full body plastinate, revealing the entire human fascial net, three-dimensionally. The result of this ambitious three-year project is the successful creation of the world's first 3-D human fascia plastinate titled FR:EIA (Fascia Revealed: Educating Interconnected Anatomy). FR:EIA will become the new attraction and an integral part of the permanent collection at the BODY WORLDS Museum in Berlin. The minds behind the project and leading protagonists of the two organizations, Dr. Vladimir Chereminskiy and Gary Carter, are excited to reveal the first fascial focused whole-body plastinate, to the world. They will talk about the obstacles they faced and benefits now available through this unique specimen for medical and anatomical education. Dr. Robert Schleip, world-known fascia researcher and scientist, and Rachelle Clauson, fascia expert and author, will moderate this special online event.

Jaume Segalés y su equipo hablan de la trashumancia, de la exposición de Body Worlds y de la obra Fuenteovejuna, historia de un maltrato.

In this episode, Christian Sorace and Matthew Galway speak with Ari Heinrich about his translation of Chi Ta-wei's classic of queer speculative fiction The Membranes; bio-technologies and prostheses; the racialisation of cadavers, organ transplant and trade; and the trap of utopian conclusions.

Death and the dead body have never been more alive in the public imagination--not least because of current debates over modern medical technology that is deployed, it seems, expressly to keep human bodies from dying, blurring the boundary between alive and dead. In Technologies of the Human Corpse (MIT Press, 2020), John Troyer examines the relationship of the dead body with technology, both material and conceptual: the physical machines, political concepts, and sovereign institutions that humans use to classify, organize, repurpose, and transform the human corpse. Doing so, he asks readers to think about death, dying, and dead bodies in radically different ways. Troyer explains, for example, how technologies of the nineteenth century including embalming and photography, created our image of a dead body as quasi-atemporal, existing outside biological limits formerly enforced by decomposition.

Dirk Van Tuerenhout is the curator of Anthropology for the Houston Museum of Natural Science. They opened two new exhibits: Pompeii and Bodyworlds. They're scheduling safe-distanced ticket entries to keep capacity at safe levels. Dirk is a great storyteller and Pompeii is one of the best stories in human history. The city both destroyed and preserved by a volcano eruption is as crazy-interesting as history gets. Go to www.HMNS.org for tickets & info.

Hello! Welcome to the very unlucky 13th episode of You Should Check Out! It's only unlucky numerically, not realistically. This week, Kat and Jace are the chattiest of Cathy's as they spend a lot of time talking about cold brew, the human body, other podcasts, and so much more. Jace starts us off by diving into the process of plastination and exposes us to literal body art; while Kat discusses Russian spies, specifically by looking at the biggest spy ring since the Cold War referred to as the Illegals Program. We hope we peak your interests and make you feel like checking these topics out. Shoutout to the sources we used for this episode.

Metra Mitchell received her early training at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, KY where she earned her Bachelor's of Fine Art in Painting and Minor in Art History on a full art scholarship in 2006. She later was awarded a teaching assistant ship from Fontbonne University in St. Louis, MO where she pursued her Masters of Fine Arts in Painting and graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2008. Metra's works have been exhibited in many galleries including: Manifest Gallery in Cincinnati, OH, PhD Gallery in St. Louis, MO, St. Louis Artist Guild, Art St. Louis Gallery, Cinema Gallery in Urbana, IL and The Foundry Art Center in St. Charles, MO. Institutions that have exhibited her paintings include University of Alaska- Anchorage, Susquehanna University, Northern Kentucky University, University of South Alabama, Western Kentucky University, Fontbonne University, World Trade Center in St. Louis and The Regional Commerce and Growth Association of St. Louis. She has also exhibited internationally in Eme' Exposition Internationale at the Centre Culturel et de la Vie Associative Villeurbanne in Lyon, France. In an exhibition entitled "Master PiecesMetra's works were highlighted by Cincinnati's cultural magazine City Beat as "exploring the nude figure while relishing the paint in rich colors and bold strokes. The subject's gaze- or in one decapitated instance, lack of one- and the inclusion of a single object create a haunting effect." She has given lectures on her work and process at several events including PhD Gallery's One Year Anniversary, Opening Night of Gunther Van Hagan's Bodyworlds at St. Louis Science Center and St. Louis Community College at Forest Park's annual City Art Speak. Metra has taught Figure Drawing II/III at St. Louis Community College at Forest Park, Drawing I at St. Charles Community College and Drawing I/II at St. Louis Community College at Florissant Valley. She is currently teaching Drawing II, III, Advanced Drawing, and Design I at Forest Park along with Art Appreciation at St. Charles and Maryville University. Her role as teacher has opened up a new vein in her work, something that she is just beginning to explore.

We can absolutely guarantee we have never had a guest like our next one on the BrandBuilders Podcast. She specializes in body parts. Yes, you heard that right. Jamie Decker offers specimen kits of organs and other body parts that are portable, dry, odorless, and non-toxic -- and real. In fact, if you ever went to the Body Worlds exhibit at Discovery Place the two times it was in Charlotte, you know what we're talking about: plastinated human tissues and organs. It's fascinating and a little creepy -- but also a valuable tool for teaching biological sciences.

In this episode, your hosts turn their scalpels on the strange and ethically-murky world of human body exhibitions. We discuss Gunther von Hagens, the German anatomist who perfected techniques of plastination, a method of preservation that he later applied to whole human cadavers in his exhibition Bodyworlds.  We look at von Hagen’s predecessors, like 17th-century Dutch anatomist Frederik Ruysch, as well as his present-day imitators, who have turned these preserved-anatomy exhibits into an international cash business, with side jaunts into the occupational diseases of anatomists and the dangers lurking in your frying pan. Don't forget to subscribe to Remains to be Seen!

Hello, Biscuit listeners and welcome to a freshly baked edition of The Biscuit Podcast, celebrating Charlotte’s creativity every week.  Today’s show is Creative Mornings Rewind, features hosts Tim Miner and Matt Olin speaking with plastination expert Jamie Decker, following her May 3 Creative Mornings Charlotte event, where Jamie spoke about the global theme of “Preserve.” In 2007, Jamie visited Discovery Place Science in Charlotte to see Body Worlds created by Dr. Gunther von Hagens. Seen by more than 44 million people, Body Worlds is known as the most visited exhibition in the world. Jamie had an interest in anatomy ahead of the trip, but having the opportunity to experience an extensive exhibition showcasing plastinated human cadavers and specimens stirred something within her that she didn’t know was there: passion. This is what she wanted to do. In this episode of Creative Mornings Rewind, Jamie talks about how life experiences can inform scientific discovery, what people should know about their bodies, what she wants her legacy to be and what body part she’s going to plastinate next. Register for the next Creative Mornings Charlotte event Friday, June 7 at 8:30 a.m. at Discovery Place Science in Uptown. The featured speaker will be local artist, educator and entrepreneur Rebecca Henderson, speaking about the global theme of “Wonder”.  RSVPs will open at 9 a.m., Monday, June 3. The Biscuit Podcast is produced by Tim Miner, Matt Olin and Andy Goh. Music by Harvey Cummings.

Na czym polega plastynacja i jak mi się podobała wystawa Body Worlds. Strona wystawy: https://bodyworlds.pl/ Ciekawostki https://bodyworlds.pl/czy-wiesz-ze/ Muzyka w tle: Spazz Cardigan, I've Just Had an Apostrophe!

As I was shepherded into a dimly-lit lift, I was expecting an exhibition designed to titillate and shock. How do you react to seeing a man standing, flayed of his skin, his internal organs on view, his muscles brick red, his blue eyes staring out at you? Or what about the trio posed round a table playing poker? You may have seen them in the film Casino Royale. James Bond stays cool. His interest is not the plastinates but how the villain manipulates their chips. There was no Daniel Craig the day I visited the exhibition, but a crowd of people, all intensely curious and fascinated. Body Worlds, the controversial exhibition of plastinated human bodies, isn’t voyeuristic. It isn’t the Chamber of Horrors. It turned out to be earnestly educational. And compelling. The only plastinate I personally found disturbing was the man holding his flayed skin in his hands, but I had recently seen much the same in Jusepe de Ribera’s painting of Apollo flaying Marsyas. Ribera painted to disturb. Plastinates are made to intrigue and inform. They are the brainchild of anatomist Dr Gunther von Hagens of Heidelberg. Looking for improved teaching aids for his students, he had the idea of impregnating anatomical specimens with plastic. Lay people were intrigued, so he created exhibitions for the general public. He worked out how to plastinate whole bodies, not just of humans – this exhibition includes a man on a rearing horse. I was surprised that all the human bodies appeared so slim. But they have been stripped of their fat. Forty years ago most people were that lean. Since then we have become accustomed to a population with a thick padding of adipose tissue. Doctors know how few patients understand the working of their own body. Body Worlds aims to change that. It seems to be succeeding, to judge from the rapt attention visitors bestowed, not just to whole bodies, but to specimens of individual organs. How many people know where their kidneys are and how they work? Or how black a smoker’s lungs are? The information content is serious and substantial, but leavened with videos, cartoons, interactive demonstrations and quotes from sages from Confucius to Kant. You can’t take photos in the exhibition so visitors really engage with what’s on show. From start to finish the emphasis is on the damaging effects of modern life and what you can do to mitigate them. I did not expect to go to Body Worlds and find myself encouraged to take deep breaths to reduce stress. But I did – and some weeks later I still do. Around 50 million people around the world have seen versions of Body Worlds, and the overwhelmingly positive comments on TripAdvisor justify Dr von Hagens' mission. As always, there are some who claim to have got nothing out of the experience. And some who complained about the cost. It isn’t cheap – £24 for a ticket bought online, £28 at the door, although curiously entry to the shows in continental Europe is less than €20. Yes, I was made uneasy. But it wasn’t squeamishness that disturbed me. It was speculating about the provenance of the bodies. In China the lucrative market for kidney transplants was, and may still be, fed by ‘donations’ from executed prisoners. Suspicions have been voiced that Body Worlds’ bodies come from the same source. The trafficking of cadavers and the manufacture of plastinated bodies and body parts are big business in China, particularly in the city of Dalian. The general manager of Dalian’s biggest company was taught plastination by Dr von Hagens, who also seems to have been involved in the business. So, were the bodies in Body Worlds obtained from what we would regard as an ethical source and with full voluntary consent? Voluntary donations, unclaimed bodies and judicial executions could not possibly supply sufficient fresh corpses for China’s plastination industry. So where do they come from? Many new prisons and a cadaver processing plant have been built ne...

Historicus Luuc Kooijmans schreef het boek 'Frederik Ruysch, op het snijvlak van kunst en wetenschap'. Drie eeuwen voordat Body Worlds haar deuren opende, bestond er al een wereldberoemde anatomische expositie. Het museum van Frederik Ruysch aan de Bloemgracht in Amsterdam. Ruysch ontdekte een preparatietechniek waarmee hij mensen op een prachtige manier wist te prepareren. Bezoekers van zijn museum konden nauwelijks geloven dat de geprepareerde lichamen niet gewoon lagen te slapen.

In this Recess episode, Chad discusses a field trip where he took students to see Body Worlds, and Clint explains what went wrong when he ventured out with his students to see Beowulf in 3D.

We chat with Robert Storey, bestselling author of the Ancient Origins series. He tells us how he deals with a medical condition called Cervical Dystonia and how that has affected his writing career. We delve into why he always ends up writing gigantic stories and the challenges of writing such stories in a series. He opens up about a particularly brutal case of writer’s block and how he ended up getting through it. I even talk about the time I went to an art exhibit called Body Worlds and how it nearly made me barf. Yes, it gets personal. All that and more!

In 1995 Tokyo University staged the first public exhibition to feature human corpses that had been preserved through the process of plastination using silicone. The process was developed by the German anatomist, Gunther Von Hagens - but it was Professor Takeshi Yoro of Japan who first suggested they should be put on public display. He speaks to Rebecca Kesby for Witness. (Photo: Base-ball player at the Body Worlds exhibition of real human bodies, San Diego, California, 2009. Credit: Gabriel Bouys/AFP)

Image: Lenin's mausoleum, Moscow. CC by Veni The American Association of Museums (AAM) has this to say about human remains in its code of ethics: “The unique and special nature of human remains and funerary and sacred objects is recognized as the basis of all decisions concerning such collections collections-related activities promote the public good rather than individual financial gain.” When AAM uses the word “special,” it means that every instance of a dead body is special, not a special body from a special person. What is different about displaying the everyman?In the second half of this two part series about dead bodies, we look at how cultures view their own dead from museums to mausoleums. We explore the Body Worlds exhibits, which bring visitors face-to-face with dozens of dead bodies, all identifying markers removed. We also discuss a landfill in Staten Island, where much of the sorting of museum artifacts and human remains from rubble took place after the September 11 attacks. NOTES: Give Me My Father's Body: The Life of Minik, the New York EskimoRegarding the Dead: Human Remains in the British Museum - The British Museum creates guidelines for displaying dead bodies. Code of Ethics for Museums - AAM

This week, Andy joins the Daddios from the sinful Drug Den. The Daddios discuss eating humans again, and the surreal atmosphere of "Body Worlds". Have you ever seen an old naked man sliced into book before? It'll alter your life's course forever. Also they discuss tattooing birds, the tragedy of dogs, and the awkwardness of the sperm donor lobby. From shitting out your own pelvis, to thanking Action Bronson, nothing is off-limits on this episode. All of these things and more on this week's episode of Daddio Patio!

Bioengineers have been steadily advancing toward the goal of building lab-grown organs out of a patient's own cells, but a few major challenges remain. One of them is making vasculature, the blood vessel plumbing system that delivers nutrients and remove waste from the cells on the inside of a mass of tissue. Without these blood vessels, interior cells quickly suffocate and die. Scientists can already grow thin layers of cells, so one proposed solution to the vasculature problem is to "print" the cells layer by layer, leaving openings for blood vessels as necessary. But this method leaves seams, and when blood is pumped through the vessels, it pushes those seams apart. Bioengineers from the University of Pennsylvania have turned the problem inside out by using a 3D printer called a RepRap to make templates of blood vessel networks out of sugar. Once the networks are encased in a block of cells, the sugar can be dissolved, leaving a functional vascular network behind. "I got the first hint of this solution when I visited a Body Worlds exhibit, where you can see plastic casts of free-standing, whole organ vasculature," says Bioengineering postdoc Jordan Miller. Miller, along with Christopher Chen, the Skirkanich Professor of Innovation in the Department of Bioengineering, other members of Chen's lab, and colleagues from MIT, set out to show that this method of developing sugar vascular networks helps keep interior cells alive and functioning. After the researchers design the network architecture on a computer, they feed the design to the RepRap. The printer begins building the walls of a stabilizing mold. Then it then draws filaments across the mold, pulling the sugar at different speeds to achieve the desired thickness of what will become the blood vessels. After the sugar has hardened, the researchers add liver cells suspended in a gel to the mold. The gel surrounds the filaments, encasing the blood vessel template. After the gel sets it can be removed from the mold with the template still inside. The block of gel is then washed in water, dissolving the remaining sugar inside. The liquid sugar flows out of the vessels it has created without harming the growing cells. "This new technology, from the cell's perspective, makes tissue formation a gentle and quick journey," says Chen. The researchers have successfully pumped nutrient-rich media, and even blood, through these gels blocks' vascular systems. They also have experimentally shown that more of the liver cells survive and produce more metabolites in gels that have these networks. The RepRap makes testing new vascular architectures quick and inexpensive, and the sugar is stable enough to ship the finished networks to labs that don't have 3D printers of their own. The researchers hope to eventually use this method to make implantable organs for animal studies. Text by Evan Lerner Video by Kurtis Sensenig
