bioprinting (noun): the use of 3D printing technology with materials that incorporate viable living cells, e.g. to produce tissue for reconstructive surgery.
CLUB
Bioprinting@Berkeley is an interdisciplinary team of undergraduates, united by an interest in the engineering and scientific processes behind tissue engineering and 3D bioprinting.
By creatively and experimentally engaging with the field of tissue engineering beyond the classroom, Bioprinting@Berkeley members are able to:
(1) Learn about the engineering challenges and applications of bioprinting
(2) Significantly contribute to a long-term tissue engineering project
(3) Develop technical skill sets in biology and engineering
(4) Connect with scientific settings in both industry and academia
Reach out to us at calbioprinting@gmail.com with any questions and follow our Instagram page @calbioprinting for updates on our projects/events!
Please consider supporting our crowdfunding to help fund materials, experiments, and outreach! http://crowdfund.berkeley.edu/bioprinting26
DECAL
Apart from the Bioprinting@Berkeley Club, we also offer a DeCal class, where students gain a strong understanding of the fundamental concepts of 3D-printing, while also surveying its many industry-standard applications, such as those in the prosthetics industry.
Spring 2026 Decal Registration is closed. Check back in Fall 2026!
Submission Deadline: Friday, January 30, 10:00pm PST
