Bioprinting is invented as an automation method in tissue engineering to solve organ shortage. Unexpectedly, some research disciplines have experienced its side effects – fortunately, positive side effects. To these non-tissue engineering fields, bioprinting is seen as either a new technology that offers the advantages of 3D printing and the flexibility of using materials of their interest or a disruptive technology that supplies human tissue products only available in dream before. Some may be revolutionized by bioprinting while others may experience enhanced or accelerated developments. Therefore, this column aims to collect the on-going research focuses on the extended applications of bioprinting and the current thinking of future markets of bioprinting.
