By printing living cells layer by layer, this emerging technology can create biological tissues and could one day enable patient-specific organs that are fully compatible with the body.
However, transforming promising laboratory research into safe and reliable clinical applications requires clear regulatory frameworks and well-defined technical standards across Europe.
To explore these needs, CEN and CENELEC and the Joint Research Centre (JRC) organized the workshop “3D Bioprinting: Towards Standards in Biomedicine” in October 2025.
