Photochemical corneal cross-linking: Evaluating the potential of a hand-held biopen by Nadina Usseglio, Julia López de Andrés, Juan Antonio Marchal, Lorenzo Moroni, Daniel Nieto

“…The generation of organized 3D tissue constructs that combines cells and photo-crosslinkable biomaterials has been demonstrated using a variety of 3D bioprinting technologies. These technologies have inspired the application for “in situ” bioprinting, resulting on hand-held tools called “Biopens” that can transfer bioprinting capabilities directly into the hands of the surgeons. …”
