Thank you to everyone at the EU Cluster Session at ESB 2026 in Antwerp yesterday. Corneas, liver, colorectal mucosa, osteochondral tissue — different tissues, the same hard problems underneath. Our coordinator Prof. Heli Skottman presented KeratOPrinter's progress. #ESB2026

Our coordinator, Prof. Heli Skottman, presents KeratOPrinter's progress in the EU Clustering Session at ESB 2026 in Antwerp tomorrow, plus an invited keynote on biomaterials for differentiation, 3D bioprinting and clinical translation. The 35th ESB conference runs 7–11 September. #ESB2026

A cornea is not one tissue. It is three, stacked: epithelium, stroma, endothelium. Building a full-thickness cornea from iPSCs means solving three differentiation problems, not one. All three cell production methods are expected by the end of 2026. Prof. Heli Skottman explains — link below.
Navy square graphic headed "A cornea is not one tissue. It is three, stacked." under the KeratOPrinter logo and the label "Building a full-thickness cornea". Three stacked rows list the corneal layers and their cell types with a status for each: Epithelium, corneal epithelial cells (iCE) — furthest along; Stroma, stromal keratocytes (iCS) — groundwork in place; Endothelium, corneal endothelial cells (iCEn) — critical priority. A line beneath reads "All three cell production methods to be established by the end of 2026." An EU flag and European Union funding disclaimer sit at the foot of the card.
