El laboratorio de última tecnología de Anthony Atala produce órganos humanos: desde músculos, vasos sanguíneos, vejigas, entre otros. En TEDMED muestra escenas de sus bio-ingenieros trabajando con algunas de las herramientas de ciencia ficción, como un horno bioreactor de precalentamiento a 37 º C y una máquina que "imprime" tejido humano.
