University of Minnesota researchers develop a 3D printing technique for realistic human tissue models for surgical training.

Organoids—self-organizing, self-reproducing structures that serve as 3D in vitro models—date back to 2009. Back then, researchers at the Hubrecht Institute led by Hans Clevers, PhD, introduced a ...

Assembloids: A Versatile Platform for Human Tissue Modeling. This schematic illustrates the classification of assembloids based on four key assembly strategies—multi-region, multi-lineage, ...

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 ...

Kimberly Quincy, a first-year graduate student in UW’s Division of Communication Disorders, displays a 3D human larynx model she created using an online software program as part of the Make-IT ...

Research and drug discovery are undergoing a transformation, driven by the rise of 3D cell culture models that better replicate human biology. Unlike traditional 2D cultures and animal models, which ...

The new model mimics the structure and function of the human conjunctiva in a lab dish, even producing its own tears. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission.
