SAN DIEGO, Feb. 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) \u2014 Organovo Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: ONVO), and BICO today announced they have reached agreement on a broad license for BICO and its affiliate companies to Organovo\u2019s foundational patent portfolio in 3D bioprinting. Founded in 2016, BICO (formerly Cellink) is the leading bio convergence company in the world. Cellink continues to operate as a wholly owned division of BICO.<\/p>\n

Organovo exclusively licensed early bioprinting work by Gabor Forgacs, its scientific founder, and Thomas Boland of Clemson, both bioprinting pioneers. After its founding, the company did early innovation in the 3D bioprinter space and obtained a further broad set of patents that provide foundational claims in the bioprinting space. In order to broaden the impact of the technology and serve the needs of a broad array of researchers and other users of bioprinting, the company seeks to make these patents available for license to first rate bioprinter developers.<\/p>\n
