Microscopic images of human tissue are a cornerstone of biomedical research and clinical diagnostics. Yet despite their ...

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 ...

Tissue-mimicking materials (TMMs) are fundamental in the field of medical imaging, where they serve as crucial phantoms for calibration, quality assurance, ...

For decades, lab-grown cells have been studied in materials that don’t reflect the softness and flexibility of human tissue. Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder have develope ...

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 ...

Microphysiological systems (MPS), also known as tissue chips, are miniature, lab-grown models of human tissues or organs designed to replicate key aspects of structure and function. Developed at the ...
