Scientists have successfully 3D printed a heart using real human cells. The structure includes chambers, blood vessels, and muscle tissue. While still experimental, it marks a major step toward ...

A new imaging breakthrough combines ultrasound and light-based techniques to generate vivid 3D images that show both tissue ...

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 ...

Miniature-sized heart chambers called ventricles have been 3D printed with live human heart muscle cells and shown to beat on their own for at least three months. Artificial heart tissue can be made ...

Scientists at the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Biology (ASHBi) at Kyoto University say they used a petri dish and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to learn how the early stages of ...

We’ve come a long way from the Vacanti mouse. Back in the mid-90s, Charles Vacanti and other researchers experimented with cartilage regeneration and, with the help of a biodegradable mold and bovine ...
