LDCRC PI Dr Olwyn Mahon Featured in Breakthrough Cancer Research Video on 3D Bioprinting

The Limerick Digital Cancer Research Centre (LDCRC) is delighted to see Principal Investigator Dr Olwyn Mahon, who helped organise the LDCRC laboratory tour with Breakthrough Cancer Research earlier this year, featured in a new video showcasing her research.

In the video, Dr Mahon explains how 3D bioprinting is being used to create miniature human tissue models that mimic structures found in the body. By incorporating living cells into these models, researchers can study how cancers respond to different drugs and therapies in an environment that more closely reflects human biology.

This innovative approach has the potential to improve our understanding of cancer, support the development of more personalized treatments, and help advance future cancer care.
