4D Bio3 Program Capabilities
The 4D Bio³ facility has a wide assortment of commercially available and custom bioprinters• Laser induced forward transfer, extrusion, stereo-lithography,
and microvalve techniques
• Multimodal printing
• Ability to match material properties to cell and tissue type
• Largest multi-tool bioprinter in the world
The 4D Bio³ lab space is equipped with all the necessities and expertise for eukaryotic cell culture• Differentiation into any adult cell type with pluripotent
stem cells
• All cell types in tissue model derive from single source
• Human cell lines with normal chromosomal karyotype
• Rhesus macaque pluripotent cell line with normal
chromosol karyotype
• Ability to add immune component without cross-reactivity
The 4D Bio³ is a Uniformed Services University Program with a 7,000 ft² facility that supports a
broad range of research and education activities related to biotechnology. The facility includes
a biofabrication suite, tissue culture room, bioreactor and sensor facility, and medical/surgical
simulation room. The laboratories capabilities encompass precision medicine, biomarker discovery,
drug and vaccine development, medical technology validation, bio-sensors, environmental and
occupational health, medical simulation, distance/education learning, and regenerative medicine.
