Researchers at University of Pittsburgh have developed a revolutionary scalable material that senses and powers itself.
Progressive Mechanoporation makes it possible to mechanically disrupt the membranes of cells for a short time period and let drugs or genes inside cells.
Scientists at Utrecht University have published a first consensus on what is and what is not an organoid.
The combination of a 2Photon 3D-printer with an innovative hydrogel-based bioink allows the direct printing of 3D structures containing living cells at both the meso- and microscale.
Scientists have figured out how to modify CRISPR’s basic architecture to extend its reach beyond the genome and into what’s known as the epigenome.
Artificial intelligence could help to optimise the development of antibody drugs. This leads to active substances with improved properties, also with regard to tolerability in the body.
Scientists have grown small amounts of self-organizing brain tissue, known as organoids, in a tiny 3D-printed system that allows observation while they grow and develop.
Researchers have created polymers that replicate the structure of mucins, the molecules that give mucus its unique antimicrobial properties.
