A key question that remains in biology and biophysics is how three-dimensional tissue shapes emerge during animal development. Research teams have now found a mechanism by which tissues can be ...

Bioengineers have created miniature intestines in a dish that match up anatomically and functionally to the real thing better than any other lab-grown tissue models. The biological complexity and ...

Synthetic tissue models offer a realistic testing alternative to the use of live animals and cadavers. Centuries of scientific and medical strides since the Renaissance would have been impossible ...

An analysis of a 30,000-year-old fossil vulture from Central Italy has revealed for the first time that volcanic rock can ...

A research team from the South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI) has identified a previously unknown type of cell that could revolutionize tissue repair and regeneration in ...

The scope of human cell type atlases widened considerably today. Formerly, landscapes of individual cell types were largely confined to single organs. But now, thanks to four single-cell RNA ...

Bones form the scaffolding that hold the body together and allow it to move. They also help protect vital organs, store minerals, and provide an environment for creating bone marrow. By adulthood, ...
