Scientists have harnessed the use of 3D printing in order to create a silicone heart that works just like a human’s.
Different from the current existing artificial hearts, the new model is hollow and soft. The most important impact of this characteristic is that scientists can then create internal mechanisms that are actually capable of replacing muscular movements and pumping blood just like a regular human heart.
The scientist that invented this material is Nicholas Kors, a doctorate student in the Switzerland Federal Institute of…
