In laboratory experiments, researchers have produced ear cartilage that remains form-stable in animal models. Only one ...

Scientists have created a three-dimensional "heart-on-a-chip" (HOC) that could provide a breakthrough in the fight against the world's leading cause of death, cardiovascular disease. One major ...

RIT researchers solve multiple tissue engineering challenges by developing a novel hydrogel to host human cells and a device to 3D print bioinks safely.

Cardiovascular Reparative Medicine and Tissue Engineering (CRMTE) aims to develop future technologies and therapeutic strategies that will serve as treatment for cardiovascular disease. CRMTE includes ...

Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine have shown significant potential for repairing and regenerating damaged tissues and can be used to provide personalized treatment plans, with broad ...

In recent years, there have been tremendous advances in tissue engineering, the field of biomaterials research and development that combines living cells with 3D microstructures and biologically ...

Never-before-seen 3D reconstructions of human liver tissue have been created at a cellular level. The details obtained by a team of UW Medicine and University of Washington engineers and physicians ...

Organ failure impacts millions of patients each year and costs hundreds of billions of US Dollars. Over the last 30 years, scientists have utilized a combination of tools, methods, and molecules of ...

Organ donors can save lives, for example, those of patients with kidney failure. Unfortunately, there are too few donors, and the waiting lists are long. 3D bioprinting of (parts of) organs may offer ...

These fields aim to facilitate healing and restore lost function in damaged or diseased tissues and organs by integrating scaffolds, cells, and biological signaling molecules. This combination aims to ...
