I'm sorry. The technology and the promise inherent in this, even if they're still at the stage of figuring out how to do it, just rocks.

Courtesy of the [livejournal.com profile] shiftlibrarian feed (main site: http://www.theshiftedlibrarian.com/) I got a link to this article about scientists who are "printing" living tissue using inkjet printers. To the degree that whole organs are becoming possible; the article gives a layman's description of how that's being accomplished.

Wow.

Wow.
