ABSTRACT
During the past decade medical researchers at Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine (WFIRM) have developed technologies to generate human tissue for manufacture of human organs such as kidneys, bladders, and heart valves. Human organs have been created via Rapid Prototype processes similar to the systems that Digital Sculptors have used to print sculptural forms during the past couple of decades.

Biomedical systems and biological sciences: A mathematical model of the proximal nephron
A model of the proximal nephrovascular unit is formulated which tracks the concentrations and fluxes of Na^+,K^+,H^+, Cl^-, HCO^-"3, HPO^-"4, H"2PO^-"4, glucose, and urea. In this model, a glomerulus provides initial data for proximal tubule and ...
