Researchers at the New York Institute of Technology and the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) have developed what’s described as a highly realistic artificial human colon, a scientific ...

Typically, bone marrow research relies heavily on animal models and oversimplified cell cultures in the laboratory. Now, researchers from the Department of Biomedicine at the University of Basel and ...

Prof LIM Chwee Teck (seated), together with Dr Nishanth Venugopal MENON (right) and Dr LEE Jee Yeon (left), from the National University of Singapore, jointly developed the new ‘gut-on-chip’ platform.

For decades, animal models have been the gold standard for preclinical testing of potential drugs. Yet, even the best animal models are not perfect. For example, small rodent species with engrafted ...

Researchers have recreated a miniature human bone marrow system that mirrors the real structure found inside our bones. The model includes the full mix of cells and signals needed for blood production ...

Researchers have developed a new method for 3D printing objects with very different properties, including levels of hardness and transparency, on a pixel-by-pixel basis while using commonly available ...
