2019年12月18日，苏州大学骨科研究所邀请了英国斯特拉斯克莱德大学Will Wenmiao Shu教授来我所交流访问并做专题报告，研究所教职工及骨科研究生参加了该报告。

Will Wenmiao Shu教授的报告题目为“3D bioprinting of smart bioinks for human stem cells and 3D biofilms”。Will Wenmiao Shu教授介绍了目前3D打印在生物加工领域的发展情况，并重点介绍打印所需的生物墨水种类的开发，目前已经有海藻酸盐、胶原蛋白、DNA和其他超分子水凝胶等多种智能生物材料被应用于3D生物打印中。同时，Will Wenmiao Shu教授介绍了自己团队采用生物材料支架和无支架方法的3D生物打印方式，实现人类多能干细胞、肝脏和心脏组织的打印研究。并结合细菌培养，发展出了3D生物膜。Will Wenmiao Shu教授的精彩报告，极大地扩展了大家对于3D生物打印研究的知识，获得了在场师生阵阵热烈的掌声。
