Organ-on-a-chip systems offer a more accurate, ethical, and scalable alternative to animal testing in drug discovery and ...

Proteins are the infinitely varied chemicals that make cells work, and science has a pretty good idea how they are made. But ...

D bioprinted nerve tissues offer new hope for ALS drug testing. Uppsala team creates motor neuron organoids from patient ...

With the aid of a 3D printer, researchers at Uppsala University have succeeded in creating a model that resembles human nerve tissue.

D printers can be used to make organoids from a patient's cells that resemble human nerve tissue to test new amyotrophic lateral sclerosis treatments.

Using a newly devised, three-dimensional model to study the regeneration of nerve tissue in the nose, researchers at Tufts University and colleagues ...

Motor neurons are nerve cells that control our muscles by sending signals from the brain and spinal cord out to the body. In diseases such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), these cells are ...

Model produced with 3D printer In the current study, the researchers used human stem cells generated from skin and programmed to become motor neuron progenitors, a type of immature nerve cell that ...
