For decades, lab-grown cells have been studied in materials that don't reflect the softness and flexibility of human tissue.

Animal studies often fail to predict human tissue responses to new drugs or newly developed therapies. Besides generating tremendous costs for clinical studies, it also raises significant ethical ...

As a researcher, I still remember the discomfort I felt every time I had to sacrifice laboratory animals for an experiment.

A study identified a turning point at which that acceleration typically occurs: around age 50. After this time, the ...

WILMINGTON, DE — Researchers at ChristianaCare’s Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute and the University of Delaware have uncovered what could be a biological “instruction manual” for ...

Before you ever set foot on a spacecraft bound for deep space, tiny replicas of your organs might make the journey first. Suspended in microgravity aboard a research mission, this organ-on-a-chip, or ...

Neurofibrillary tangles mark Alzheimer’s disease and a plethora of primary tauopathies. How best to study them in the lab? Most mouse tauopathy models overexpress the human tau protein and are highly ...
