Wearing blue rubber gloves, Molly Dobrow reached into a metal vat of diluted sodium hydroxide and pulled out two dripping-wet models of human organs: a heart and a set of lungs. Made of Elastico, a ...

A team from the Department of Electronics, Information and Bioengineering of the Politecnico di Milano, led by Dr. Andrea ...

Scientists have been fantasizing about the potential of precise 3D bioprinting for years. Just imagine, for example, if doctors could trial therapies on an exact replica of a kidney disease patient’s ...

Join us for a live webinar on the latest advancements in spatial biology. Featuring two insightful presentations, learn how cutting-edge imaging and single-cell technologies are transforming our ...

Stanford bioengineer Mark Skylar-Scott writes about what he’s working on, how it could advance human health and well-being, and why universities are critical players in the nation’s innovation ...

Engineers at the University of Pittsburgh are working to develop 3D-printed organic tissue models that mimic the behavior of living organs. Online cover of Science Advances, April issue. A ...

A rapid form of 3D printing that uses sound and light could one day produce copies of human organs made from a person’s own cells, allowing for a range of drug tests. Traditional 3D printers build ...

The field of therapeutic cloning has long sought to provide a way to create replacement organs and tissues from a patient’s own cells, with the most recent boost coming from the US Advanced Research ...

Scientists have developed 3D mini-organs from human fetal brain tissue that self-organize in vitro. These lab-grown organoids open up a brand-new way of studying how the brain develops. They also ...

Researchers at Harvard’s Wyss Institute are building model uteruses the size of a thumbdrive to diagnose heavy menstrual ...
