There’s no doubt that medicine has come a long way; we know way more about how the human body works than ever before. Seeing inside the body, though, still presents a challenge. Yes, we have scans, ...

As researchers explore therapeutic strategies for more complex and heterogeneous diseases the need for more physiologically relevant models has never been greater. Researchers are increasingly looking ...

In the new study, the team used the model to demonstrate that as Alzheimer's pathology accumulates in the brain, specific types of immune cells called CT8+ T Cells surge into the brain and amplify the ...

MIT scientists have developed a new 3D human brain tissue model that could change how researchers study neurological diseases. The platform, called Multicellular Integrated Brains or miBrains, ...

3D microtissues, resembling human tissue in both form and function, have been shown to be amenable to parallelized screening approaches. However, most 3D screens rely on global endpoints such as ...

Early on in the pandemic, it became clear Covid-19 had made the leap from animals to humans. The exact chain of transmission isn't known, but the science so far suggests bats played a starring role.

A new 3D connective tissue model gives researchers a sophisticated tool to understand the underlying mechanisms of connective tissue disorders and test potential treatments. To find treatments for ...

For the past several years Google has been building out a ton of 3D models of animals and other objects that you can view in augmented reality but, recently, Google has all but removed the vast ...

Neuronal death is the indisputable endgame of Alzheimer’s disease, but what does the killing, and how? To try to solve the mystery, researchers have staged increasingly complex crime scenes in ...
