    Bioprinting is a novel technology that has a greater potential to revolutionize the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. The growth of this technology is commendable and the applications explored are far and wide, including skin printing, orthopedics, cardiovascular applications, dental and maxillofacial applications, cancer research, and personalized medicine. Bioprinting is moving from tissue printing toward printing of functional organs. Although printing fully functional organ cannot be expected to be achieved in this decade, given the challenges and complexities, diligent efforts are taken by researchers around the world to realize this ambitious goal. Asia has contributed its share to the global bioprinting research community. A keyword search in Scopus with “bioprinting” showed that Asia has 30% share of the research publications in the past decade (2008-2018), the details are shown in table below.
