What can biofabrication do for space and what can space do for biofabrication?

Lorenzo Moroni et al.

Summary: Biofabrication in space is a promising research direction in the field of space STEM. It offers advantages such as the use of more fluidic channels and biocompatible bioinks in microgravity, as well as the ability to create tissue and organ constructs with more complex geometries. Furthermore, studying biofabricated tissues in microgravity and cosmic radiation can provide insights into pathophysiological phenomena that are relevant for Earth and deep space missions.
