Glad to see some response with regards to the positioning technology that would give us the necessary accuracy. I think the most important question now, is how can we extrude the plant cell? Typically, plant cells have cellulose, and this gives the cell membrane a structural rigidity that is not present in animal cells. How can we move forward with building an extruder that is compatible with celby azeem.hussein - Tissue Engineering
hey just saw this thread, wanted to greet everyone else out here. i'm actually in new hyde park, about ~30 mins from NYC, and i noticed a poster from levittown as well. Greetz to all, and looking to build a mendel or mendel prusa... anyone interested?by azeem.hussein - New York City RepRap User Group
hey guys, i'm a bit new to the reprap community but i'm also here in ny & would love to attend the meetup. any info would be greatly appreciatedby azeem.hussein - New York City RepRap User Group
Hey guys. Reprap is a revolution in printing of 3D projects, and allows us to bring 3D printing to the everyman. However, it seems hard to find a good 3D cad program that doesn't cost tons of money. What we're aiming to do is create something along the lines of an open-source Inventor or Solidworks program... (Similar to how Open Office is a handy open source MS office clone) That has the abiliby azeem.hussein - 3D Design tools
With all of the talk about printing cells and tissues... I'd like to start a thread where we can really take a look into the issues of printing cells, for both animals AND plants. Furthermore, what about printing microalgae, etc? My first Mendel has yet to arrive, but I've got an educational background in biomedical engineering, and would be glad to help spearhead and hopefully begin such a projeby azeem.hussein - Tissue Engineering
