MIT scientists have developed a new 3D human brain tissue model that could change how researchers study neurological diseases ...

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.

We’ve come a long way from the Vacanti mouse. Back in the mid-90s, Charles Vacanti and other researchers experimented with cartilage regeneration and, with the help of a biodegradable mold and bovine ...

The development could help scientists develop patient-specific treatments and one day offer a lab-grown lung transplant ...

It's referred to as a phantom, yet it's anything but scary. In fact, for patients who need tumors extracted, it could help advance a promising surgical procedure. Developed by Department of Mechanical ...

Lung diseases like tuberculosis and cystic fibrosis can be difficult to treat. In part, that's because the two-dimensional models researchers use to study the diseases don't accurately reflect the ...
