No optimized tool
There is a lack of tools (platforms) where you can quickly search for an already optimized 3D model and/or protocol.
The missing link in 3D bioprinting reproducibility
BioPrintHub is the first platform where researchers find, share, and cite validated 3D bioprinting models and protocols. You can find everything you need to reproduce and build on existing work.

The problem
3D bioprinting is moving fast, but the expertise needed to reproduce successful results is often difficult to find
More than a repository for 3D models, BioPrintHub enables researchers to share the protocols and lessons learned that make those models work. By making practical know-how accessible and reproducible, the platform helps accelerate discovery and innovation across the bioprinting community. Built by researchers, for researchers, BioPrintHub is designed to turn isolated successes into shared progress.
Printer lock-in
A protocol validated on CELLINK and other brands doesn't transfer to BlackDrop without manual translation of every parameter.
No citation for protocols
Researchers share their methods for free in papers but get no credit when others use them outside publications.
How it works
From files to reproducible science in 3 steps
Upload what you have — STL, GCODE, PDF, or a DOI.
1
Upload any file
Drop everything you have
STL geometry, GCODE, PDF protocol, or paste a DOI. Combine multiple sources for best results. Takes under 30 seconds.
2
Add details
Review, update, complete
Add any details optionally to enrich your file, such as pressure, temperature, bioink, cell type, crosslinking or other parameters.
3
Publish & get cited
Your protocol, your DOI
Publish with a citable DOI. Downloaders are required to attribute your work. Every download is tracked and reported to you.
