ALT Welcome to the "Build Your Own Bioprinter" Workshop, proudly launched by the INTBIOTECH program in collaboration with the University of Ottawa, Carleton University, and the Regenerative Biomaterials & Therapeutics Group. This dynamic event invites participants from diverse laboratory backgrounds to explore the exciting realm of bioprinting. Join us for insightful guest speaker sessions each morning in the field of bioprinting and its applications (non-cost & open to everyone, registration required, hybrid format), followed by hands-on construction sessions in the afternoons where teams will assemble their own bioprinters (limited to up to 10 teams, 2-4 people per team). Don't miss this unique opportunity for learning, collaboration, and innovation! Registration fees: The talks and presentations will be available at non-cost prior registration. The hands on part of the event where the bioprinter will be assembled has a registration fee of $2500 per team.

ALT With heart disease continuing to be among the top causes of death worldwide, the need for therapeutic materials to repair damaged heart tissue cannot be overstated. Thus, it is not surprising to see thousands of materials for heart repair published in peer-reviewed journals every year. Public and private funding bodies devote hundreds of millions of dollars to promising technologies; however, empirically, it is understood that very few of these materials will be used in the clinic. And yet, the question of how "few" is "few" remains, for the most part, unanswered. In our comprehensive study, we delved into the literature available from 2012 to 2022, specifically focusing on clinical trials using materials for direct heart repair. The results were startling. Despite the vast number of studies and materials developed over the years, a mere 8 different materials have been tested in clinical trials since 2012. This rarity raises essential questions about the barriers that hinder clinica
