Highly flexible 3D bioprinting! Featuring a bio 3D printer with cell ink.

Cell culture, which is essential in fields such as regenerative medicine, oncology using stem cells, drug discovery, and toxicity evaluation, is still predominantly conducted in two-dimensional cultures. However, some may wonder if conducting experiments in three dimensions, similar to the cells themselves and the surrounding environment in vivo, would allow for a more faithful study of cell behavior. In this document, we introduce the importance of three-dimensional culture and our company's 3D bioprinting technology, as discussed with our application specialists. We encourage you to read it. [Contents (partial)] - Highly flexible 3D bioprinting - Usable even by beginners, allowing for plenty of trial and error - Extrusion printer BIO X - Light-curing bioprinting LUMEN X+ *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Developed a bio-ink composed of human endothelial cells, human pericytes, and animal collagen, and printed the structure.

Current artificial skin graft products promote wound healing, but they ultimately detach because they do not integrate with the patient's skin tissue. The lack of a functional vascular system in artificial grafts poses a significant barrier. We have developed a bioink composed of human endothelial cells, human pericytes, and animal collagen, allowing us to print these structures using the "CELLINK BIO X" and a temperature-controlled print head. This combination of critical elements enables cells to initiate communication and begin forming vascular structures with characteristics similar to biological blood vessels within weeks. Once the vessels are formed, they can exchange nutrients and waste, sustaining the survival of the graft. [Overview] ■ Institution: Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute ■ Challenge: The lack of a functional vascular system in artificial grafts is a significant barrier ■ Solution: Using CELLINK BIO X and a temperature-controlled print head ■ Results - Begin forming vascular structures with characteristics similar to biological blood vessels within weeks - Once vessels are formed, they can exchange nutrients and waste, maintaining the survival of the graft *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

Introducing bio-printing technology for 3D heart models designed for personalized medicine and transplantation.

In Dr. Carmine Gentile's laboratory in Sydney, research is being conducted to develop bio-printed heart tissue using patient-specific cells to minimize the risk of transplant rejection. In a 2020 study, mouse cells were bio-printed using alginate-gelatin hydrogel with CELLINK's "BIO X." The bio-printed heart cells were cultured for 7 to 14 days until they developed into pulsating patches of heart tissue. During open-heart surgery on mice from which the cells were derived, the vascularized heart patches were transplanted into the damaged areas of the heart. The transplantation aimed to test the safety of the bio-printed patches and confirm their positive effects on heart function, both of which were validated. [Summary] - Facility: Dr. Carmine Gentile's laboratory in Sydney - Challenge: Development of bio-printed heart tissue - Results: - Safety of the bio-printed patches - Positive effects on heart function *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.*

Pursuing ease of use! Enables high-resolution printing using living cells.

The "BIONOVA X" is a type of bio 3D printer that cures hydrogels using DLP light crosslinking. It has a high resolution of about 10μm and also supports grayscale printing (changing the illumination according to the pixel intensity in the model image). Developed in the lab of Dr. Shaochen Chen at UCSD, this device accommodates a variety of applications and can be applied to the development of axonal guides for spinal injury treatment. 【Features】 ■ Can print directly onto well plates with up to 24 wells ■ Provides an ideal environment for high-throughput applications ■ Capable of easily modeling tiny structures and complex shapes such as vascular systems ■ Patented continuous printing technology ■ Achieves overwhelming speed without sacrificing print fidelity *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

[Speaker] Naomasa Shibuya, Department Manager Data Marketing Unit, Strategy and Platform Division East Japan Railway Company Marketing Headquarters [Key Lecture Content] East Japan Railway Company announced a new group management vision, "Yusho 2034," aimed at realizing a rich life for all people by July 2025. In addition to the railway transportation business, we will further expand lifestyle service businesses (non-railway) such as station facilities, station buildings, hotels, and real estate, promoting human-centered marketing focused on our customers. To achieve this, data marketing utilizing usage history from Suica and JRE Point members is essential. It is not enough to simply implement tools or acquire analytical techniques; it is crucial to cultivate personnel who understand the business and can conduct appropriate data analysis and strategy planning. We will also introduce the development of job-type personnel in data marketing, which we began recruiting in 2024. In this lecture, I will discuss the key points for advancing data marketing within a business company, incorporating case studies.
