Miniature organs on a chip could allow us to do scientific studies with great precision, without having to resort to animal testing. The main problem, however, is that artificial tissue needs blood ...

Blood vessels are like big-city highways; full of curves, branches, merges, and congestion. Yet for years, lab models ...

In biomedical research, so-called organs-on-a-chip, also referred to as microphysiological systems, are becoming increasingly ...

Scientists at the Terasaki Institute for Biomedical Innovation (TIBI), led by Dr. Vadim Jucaud (Assistant Professor), have ...

Lipid membranes, which form the outer layer of cells, can be engineered to influence cellular functions. For example, ...

The implementation of human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) models has introduced an additional tool for identifying molecular mechanisms of disease that complement animal models.

Abstract: This paper describes a 3-D optoelectronic device model for organic bulk heterojunction solar cells. Three-dimensional full-wave optical simulation enables us to incorporate different modern ...

While such information has been successfully applied to the study of human disease, this translation would be significantly strengthened by the availability of models based on human cells. This would ...

Sterols are among the most abundant lipids in eukaryotic cells, yet are synthesized through notoriously long, complex metabolic pathways. Researchers have used a novel approach to show how they ...

The novelty lies in combining the strengths of both algorithms, achieving better prediction accuracy and reducing errors compared to single-model methods. It provides continuous and scalable SOH and ...

A next-generation "armored" CAR T cell therapy showed promising results in a small study of patients whose B-cell lymphomas continued to resist multiple rounds of other cancer treatments ...
