Using 3D printers to print DNA, and one day maybe organs.

University of Texas did this study but I watched a program on TED talks where a student of Ray Kurzweil also is delving into this research. Anyone with more information please post! While technology has helped the medical field progress this would indeed be a game changer.

3D printed DNA

a reply to: CriticalStinker I think they are printing organs and body parts.

Why in the # is no one trying to print proteins & food?

End world hunger? Nahhhhhh

I'm sure that would be a result. Weird to think what that could do eating nonrandom genes though, a lot of your immune system is bolstered by what you ingest too.

I think it's awhile before all food sources are replaced by Star Trek style replicators.

Supplements & preservatives wouldnt be disappearing anytime soon, but there's plenty of humans who could use any kind of "bolstering".

Truth.
