This is very cool, maybe instead of needing to print whole new organs we can excise diseased sections and replace with healthy cells in non-drastic cases.

This is great news as long as the printed organs are not rejected. If they can print microbrains, we would potentially not need GPUs in the future. And soldiers could have two hearts. I think in a decade or two, all organs will be printable.
