Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human lung-on-chip model using stem cells taken from only one person. These chips simulate breathing motions and lung ...

Biological assailants like fungi, bacteria, and viruses continuously test natural defenses that have evolved over millennia. Newer and stranger particles that originate from burning fuels, harmful ...

For decades, animal models have been the gold standard for preclinical testing of potential drugs. Yet, even the best animal models are not perfect. For example, small rodent species with engrafted ...

Researchers at the Institute of Industrial Science, the University of Tokyo, have developed a system that allows human lung organoids to expand in a breathing-like manner by applying pressure from ...

UBC Okanagan researchers have developed a 3D bio-printed model that closely mimics the complexity of natural lung tissue, an innovation that could transform how scientists study lung disease and ...

Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, underscoring the urgent need for improved therapeutic strategies grounded in ...

A urine test developed by scientists at the University of Cambridge has moved a step closer to clinical use following new ...

Tokyo, Japan — Researchers at the Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo have developed a system that allows human lung organoids to expand in a breathing-like manner by applying ...
