What they do

Problem

Drug development and biomedical research lack human-relevant tissue models with realistic multicellular structure and vascularization for accurate testing and screening.

Solution

Volumetric uses breakthrough 3D bioprinting to build living multicellular human tissues with complex blood vessel networks for patient-specific drug safety and efficacy testing and, longer term, organ replacement.

Who it's for

Pharmaceutical companies and biomedical researchers who need human tissue models for laboratory testing, screening, and drug development.

Founders

Jordan Miller
Co-Founder and President

3D Printing meets Biology. Jordan is advancing 3D bioprinting technology to make organ replacements for human patients. He received his bachelor’s degree in Biology from MIT in 2003, and earned his PhD in Bioengineering from Rice University in 2008. Volumetric (W20) was acquired by 3D Systems in 2021, in a deal valued at $400M.
