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 ...
Researchers in Japan have transplanted pituitary tissue grown from human stem cells into a primate whose pituitary gland had ...
Every day, your body replaces billions of cells—and yet, your tissues stay perfectly organized. How is that possible? A team of researchers at ChristianaCare's Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research ...
Biomedical engineers from the University of Melbourne have invented a 3D printing system, or bioprinter, capable of fabricating structures that closely mimic the diverse tissues in the human body, ...
Georgia Tech engineers have developed a wireless networking system that lets tiny implants communicate ...
The concept of a human body map I encountered at CIFARIn May 2026, I participated in the CIFAR MacMillan Multiscale Human ...
Scientists have rediscovered and characterized a remarkable type of body tissue that works much like biological bubble wrap, potentially revolutionizing how we approach facial reconstruction and ...
A new study by Vanderbilt investigators has uncovered a previously unknown biological mechanism: how tissues detect and respond to damage in basement membranes, the thin layers of extracellular matrix ...
Death can look like a single moment: the heart stops, breathing ends and the person is declared dead. At the level of individual organs, tissues and cells, however, the transition is not ...
