Human tissues made with 3D printers could very soon save millions of lives: those of laboratory rats. More than three hundred million animals are killed every year in scientific laboratories and research centers around the world: they are mostly mice, rats and rabbits which are used to study vaccines and drugs to be tested in subsequent phases on humans: it is a sad (and sometimes necessary) reality that could soon be avoided.
