3D Bio-Tissues

Producing bio-equivalent tissues for clinical and cellular agriculture.

3D Bio-Tissues (3DBT) is a tissue engineering company spun out from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. It is led by an expert research team with over 20 years of experience in engineering tissue-based products and successfully grew the world’s first human corneas.

Applying the hypothesis that a better understanding of biology will lead to improved approaches to tissue engineering, 3DBT has developed a powerful new process called ’tissue templating’.

Tissue templating is an in-house engineering platform that takes a bio-inspired, bottom-up approach to tissue engineering to create STRUCTURED, FUNCTIONAL and SCALABLE tissues.

3DBT’s bio-inspired solutions.

3DBT has three strands of IP, each with a different sectoral focus, development and revenue timeline.
