I can’t wait until they print a complete human, although that would be an ethical quagmire. Printing a brain would be a extremely radical step, although I am not sure if it would be of any use, perhaps sections or printed brain could be transplanted for people who suffer severe brain damage, perhaps people will start taking back-up scans of their brains. I think with sufficient stem cell advancement you could transplant your brain into a new 3D-printed brainless body at some point in the not too distant future. What do you think?
