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. Grown ...

Until now, conventional 3D cell cultures have often been either too rigid or too unstable to realistically reproduce the ...

Advanced 3D cell models recreate the complexity of human tissues, enabling researchers to examine tumor progression, probe neurological disorders, and assess therapeutic candidates. By capturing the ...

Scientists at MIMETAS have published a new study describing a scalable, self-assembling human blood-brain barrier (BBB) model that combines physiological relevance with high-throughput capability. The ...

A team led by Northwestern University and Shirley Ryan AbilityLab scientists have developed a new technology that can eavesdrop on the hidden electrical dialogues unfolding inside miniature, lab-grown ...

A team led by Professor Inkyung Jung from the Department of Biological Sciences at KAIST, working with Professor Yarui Diao’s ...

Neurodegenerative diseases affect more than 57 million people globally. The incidence of these diseases, from Alzheimer's to Parkinson's to ALS and beyond, is expected to double every 20 years. Though ...

The blood-brain barrier protects the central nervous system by tightly regulating what crosses between the two compartments. Neurons are vulnerable if the barrier suffers damage or weakens with age, ...

As non-animal models move mainstream, the focus is shifting toward reproducibility and data integrity. By using specialized ...

A research team drawn from collaborators across the USA has developed a super-resolution photoacoustic imaging method that ...
