Websites like The Pirate Bay offers 3D printing (pirate bay won’t offer 3D printing, please understand the story) which requires only 3D blueprints or scans of the 3D model.

#Organ-On-a-chip: An Organ-On-a-chip is a 3D Micro fluidic cell culture chip which is a replica of the organs and the organ systems. The replicated organs include the Heart, lungs, kidney, Skin and many more.

This system can be used for pharmaceuticals testing, replacing the animals used for it.
