Your body is one of the most complex natural structures ever. Billions of cells are put together in a specific way with the ...

Scientists at UNSW Sydney have created a new material that could change the way human tissue can be grown in the lab and used in medical procedures. The new material belongs to a family of substances ...

The development of artificial grafts that may recapitulate the tissue microarchitecture is one of the most ambitious and complex approaches to understanding molecular mechanisms in an in vitro ...

Nature has found many ways to build lungs, finds Princeton engineering professor Celeste Nelson. Pictured is a chicken lung in development. Image by Bezia Lemma, Princeton University postdoctoral ...

3D bioprinting combines cells, growth factors, and biomaterials to fabricate biomedical parts. The process requires special “bio-inks,” often made of materials like alginate or gelatin. A key goal is ...

Cardiovascular Reparative Medicine and Tissue Engineering (CRMTE) aims to develop future technologies and therapeutic strategies that will serve as treatment for cardiovascular disease. CRMTE includes ...

S&T researchers develop new method for 3D printing tissue, with potential to speed up and simplify the process of making ...

Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from engineering, biology, and materials science to develop biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue ...

It is still not fully understood how, despite having the same set of genes, cells turn into neurons, bones, skin, heart, or roughly 200 other kinds of cells, and then exhibit stable cellular behavior ...

A research team has successfully recreated the structure of wrinkles in biological tissue in vitro, uncovering the mechanisms behind their formation. A research team consisting of Professor Dong Sung ...
