Imagine this: 3D-printed body parts that are printed directly in the body. Sounds far out, right? But new research from an interdisciplinary team of scientists has created a bio-ink designed for ...

During the early stages of life, organs do not just appear in their final form. They take shape through a process of controlled bending, twisting, and folding. These changes help cells organize into ...

A new technique for 3D-printing soft materials directly inside the body could allow the creation of complex structures deep within tissue—without making a single incision. The approach, unveiled this ...

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 ...

In the TV series Westworld, human body parts are built on robotic frames using 3D printers. While still far from this scenario, 3D printers are being increasingly used in medicine. For example, 3D ...

Original story from Technion-Israel Institute of Technology (Haifa, Israel). An implantable tissue flap containing muscle and ...

Lensless microscopes have simple and compact optics that, together with associated computational algorithms, allow for large fields of view and the refocusing of the captured images. One limitation of ...

Scientists at Scripps Research report that they have unveiled a new tissue-clearing method for rendering large biological samples transparent. The method makes it much easier for scientists to ...
