The partnership represents an exciting step forward for designing three-dimensional human tissues and has the potential to open up bioprinting to a broader group of users. Currently, design tissue for 3D printing is limited to programming, and being able to design in 3D will greatly improve the pace of design and ultimately, the pace of research.\u00a0Organovo\u2019s 3D bioprinting technology is used to create living human tissues, and Autodesk Research is lending its expertise in developing 3D\u00a0software for the design and simulation of molecular systems and living systems. <a class=\"asset-img-link\" href=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/typepad\/6a017c3334c51a970b017ee66b7163970d-pi\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset asset-image at-xid-6a017c3334c51a970b017ee66b7163970d\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" title=\"002204\" src=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/typepad\/6a017c3334c51a970b017ee66b7163970d-500wi\" alt=\"002204\" \/><\/a> \u201cAutodesk is an excellent fit for developing new software for 3D bioprinters,\u201d said Keith Murphy, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Organovo. \u201cThis partnership will lead to advances in bioprinting, including both greater flexibility and throughput internally, and the potential long-term ability for customers to design their own 3D tissues for production by Organovo.\u201d \u201cBioprinting has the potential to change the world,\u201c said Jeff Kowalski, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer at Autodesk. \u201cIt\u2019s a blend of engineering, biology and 3D printing, which makes it a natural for Autodesk.
