Researchers have developed a novel bioprinting technique that uses spheroids, which are clusters of cells, to create complex tissue. This new technique improves the precision and scalability of tissue ...

As organisms develop from embryos, groups of cells migrate and reshape themselves to form all manner of complex tissues. There are no anatomical molds shaped like lungs, livers or other tissues for ...

Biological tissues have a remarkable ability to organize and change shape, driven by forces generated by their own cells. One ...

Immune responses rely on the efficient movement of immune cells within the complex and geometrically unpredictable three-dimensional tissues that make up our bodies. Recent research by the Sixt group ...

A project at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) has developed a method able to carry out simultaneous super-resolution imaging and optical sectioning in laser scanning microscopy. Described in ...

Researchers at the Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute have demonstrated that combining data from different origins enables a more precise characterization of cell type's diversity into ...

Cell on the move. A dendritic cell (actin inside the cell is shown in blue) crawls through a collagen gel (magenta). Immune responses rely on the efficient movement of immune cells within the complex ...

Sometimes, moving just a few inches can go a long way. Osaka Metropolitan University researchers have developed a promising technique for head and neck reconstruction that shifts the placement of ...

When it comes to the human body, form and function work together. The shape and structure of our hands enable us to hold and manipulate things. Tiny air sacs in our lungs called alveoli allow for air ...

A centimeter cube cartilage construct via High-throughput Integrated Tissue Fabrication System for Bioprinting (HITS-Bio) in the lab of Ibrahim Ozbolat at Penn State. UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — ...
