Human embryo models capable of synthesizing their own blood have been developed, in an advance that could lead to new ...

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, ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

D printing creates solid objects from the additive process of layering plastics, metal, wood, synthetic fibers, and more.

Tau pathology continues to be a major focus in neurodegenerative disease research. Standard 2D models often miss the complex interactions between human neural cells and the spread of pathological tau ...
