Hidden inside every organ, microscopic fibers form a scaffolding that quietly shapes how we move, think, and heal. For the first time, scientists have produced detailed maps of these fiber webs across ...

Despite its importance, the heart is one of the few tissues in the human body that can't repair damage very well – or at ...

A newly developed imaging method blends ultrasound and photoacoustics to capture both tissue structure and blood-vessel function in 3D.

A biohybrid hand which can move objects and do a scissor gesture has been created. The researchers used thin strings of lab-grown muscle tissue bundled into sushilike rolls to give the fingers enough ...

Mount Sinai's Cardiovascular Research Institute is sending bioengineered human heart muscle cells and micro-tissues into space for the first time on NASA's 29 th SpaceX commercial resupply services ...

Pioneering research by experts at the University of Sydney, the Baird Institute and the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in ...

Muscle-on-chip systems are three-dimensional human muscle cell bundles cultured on collagen scaffolds. A Stanford University research team sent some of these systems to the International Space Station ...

Russell has a PhD in the history of medicine, violence, and colonialism. His research has explored topics including ethics, science governance, and medical involvement in violent contexts. Russell has ...

The complex combination of movements required for this simple scissor gesture is a big step up from the capabilities of previous biohybrid robots. A biohybrid hand which can move objects and do a ...
