AIUB Community of Engineering Students (ACES) organized a webinar titled “Tissue Engineering by 3D Bioprinting Process: An Interdisciplinary Approach” on October 16, 2021(Saturday). The program began at 07:30 PM with around 65 participants attending via the online platform Zoom. The purpose of this webinar was to familiarize the students with Tissue Engineering and 3D Bio Printing Technology.

Prof. Dr. A.B.M. Siddique Hossain (Dean, Faculty of Engineering, AIUB; Advisor, ACES) commenced the webinar by highlighting that Bio printing is one of the most popular additive manufacturing processes with a strong potential for the application of bones, orthopedics, tissues, organs and other bio structures. He encouraged the participants that it is a very exciting area of research with a lot of scope for innovation. Dr. Md Ahasan Habib (Assistant Professor, Sustainable Product Design and Architecture/Sciences, Sustainability and Health, Keene State College, USA) started his speech by stating the statistics on how rapidly human organ transplant patients are increasing in USA and worldwide. He demonstrated the distinction between basic 3D printing and 3D bio printing by elaborating the selection of printing material. Later, he exhibited a number of test results on bio printing using the concept of Microbiology, Biochemistry and Nanofiber Technology. Finally, a short Q&A session was held where the speaker answered the queries of the participants. Following that, Prof. Dr. A.B.M. Siddique Hossain (Dean, Faculty of Engineering, AIUB; Advisor, ACES) thanked the distinguished speaker with a virtual token of appreciation for delivering such a great presentation.

The webinar was graced by the presence of Dr Mohammad Hasan Imam (Associate Professor, Faculty of Engineering, AIUB), Dr. Md. Ehasanul Haque (Senior Assistant Professor, Faculty of Engineering, AIUB), Mr. Mohammad Khurshed Alam (Assistant Professor, Faculty of Engineering, AIUB), Dr. Md. Kabiruzzaman (Assistant Professor, Faculty of Engineering, AIUB), Mr. Md. Shahariar Parvez (Lecturer, Faculty of Engineering, AIUB), Mr. Abir Ahmed (Assistant Professor, Faculty of Engineering, AIUB; Motivator, ACES).
