Presentation by Dr Alexandre Erler, from the ACT research team, at the 31st European Conference on Philosophy of Medicine and Healthcare. Topic: ethical issues related to uses of the technology of 3D bioprinting "beyond therapy", including uses by "biohackers" that would involve a form of DiDIY.
One of the main limitations of 3D printing is its "slowness". Often, though, this is an issue only when one actually needs to manufacture many identical copies of the same object. Still, it is an issue.
