A severed mosquito proboscis can be turned into an extremely fine nozzle for 3D printing, and this could help create replacement tissues and organs for transplants.
I’ve linked to a decent write-up on Tom’s Hardware, but New Scientist covered it last week too.
Source paper: 3D necroprinting: Leveraging biotic material as the nozzle for 3D printing (science.org)



3D printing is not vegan anymore.
I’d say harming mosquitoes (females only, that feed on blood) is better than vegan!
That’s misogyny.
I don’t hate them because they’re women, I hate them for what they eat! Which they do because they’re female. 🤔
I feel the same way about women who drink prosecco. Kill them all.
