A laboratory has developed a new, significantly simpler way of cultivating a 3D model of the intestine that leads to increased complexity and organization. During the past ten years, scientists who ...

Discover UCL's Human Organ Atlas: an interactive 3D platform for studying human organs in unprecedented detail ...

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 ...

An international team of scientists and clinicians has announced the launch of a new open-access 3D portal that allows users to explore intact human organs in unprecedented detail—from the whole organ ...

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 ...

In the world of medical advancements, 3D-printed organs have made a significant stride. Latest trials have demonstrated that these bioengineered organs can maintain their function for up to six months ...

Researchers create a new polymer that mimics the mechanical, thermal, and electromagnetic properties of brain tissue, driving ...

3D-printing technology has led to humans having almost anything we need in only a few simple steps. That apparently includes scale models of our own internal organs. That way, surgeons can practice on ...

The models can be used to plan surgeries and in the future could be used to help trial new drugs. A healthy heart beats at a steady rate, between 60 and 100 times a minute. That’s not the case for all ...

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 ...
