In conventional pathology and physiology research, two-dimensional (2D) analysis—observing thinly sliced tissue sections—has ...

Researchers developed a microfluidic chip with 3D-printed microstructures that moves droplets precisely, captures cells efficiently, and quickly forms cell spheroids for improved lab-grown tissue ...

University of Minnesota researchers developed a 3D-printed scaffold that directs stem cells to grow into functioning nerve cells, successfully restoring movement in rats with severed spinal cords.

Researchers at ETH Zurich have created elastic and stable ear cartilage from human cells grown in a laboratory.

Most cells in the human body exist in complex three-dimensional environments, yet they are still commonly studied on flat plastic dishes. These two-dimensional cultures distort cell behavior, limiting ...

3D bioprinting, in which living tissues are printed with cells mixed into soft hydrogels, or "bio-inks," is widely used in the field of bioengineering for modeling or replacing the tissues in our ...

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

In the laboratories of 3D Biotechnology Solutions (3DBS), a startup incubated at the Mandic Hub in Campinas, São Paulo state, Brazil, solutions are being developed for the biofabrication of human and ...

Never-before-seen 3D reconstructions of human liver tissue have been created at a cellular level. The details obtained by a team of UW Medicine and University of Washington engineers and physicians ...

Growing cells in three dimensions is critical for studying how tissues behave in the body, yet most laboratory platforms remain either too simple or too complex to use widely. Researchers now present ...
