We are pleased to announce that the International Journal of Bioprinting (IJB) is partnering with the 2026 (3rd) Central and Western China Biomanufacturing and Related Materials Development Forum to launch a dedicated special issue on "3D Bioprinting for Engineered Tissues and Organs."
The forum will take place from June 5–7, 2026 in Taiyuan, Shanxi, co-organized by Taiyuan University of Technology, the National Engineering Research Center for Biomaterials, Xi'an Jiaotong University, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Chongqing Medical University, and other leading institutions. Building on the success of the previous two forums held in Xi'an (2024, 2025), this year's event aims to foster innovation and collaboration in biomanufacturing and related materials across China's central and western regions.
