Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine have shown significant potential for repairing and regenerating damaged tissues and can be used to provide personalized treatment plans, with broad ...

A new kind of 3D-printable material that can stretch, flex and still stay friendly to living cells could change how medical ...

The Suspended Tissue Open Microfluidic Patterning, or STOMP device, is small enough to fit on a fingertip, and is expected to advance human tissue modeling for research on a variety of complex ...

S&T researchers develop new method for 3D printing tissue, with potential to speed up and simplify the process of making ...

Cardiovascular Reparative Medicine and Tissue Engineering (CRMTE) aims to develop future technologies and therapeutic strategies that will serve as treatment for cardiovascular disease. CRMTE includes ...

A team of researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have designed a ground-breaking material that is designed to prevent the buildup of scar tissue around implantable devices. The ...

Implanted medical devices often stimulate the body’s immune system to isolate the foreign material and build up a wall of scar tissue around the devices, which can ultimately prevent them from ...

Over time, scar tissue slows or stops implanted bioelectronics. But new interdisciplinary research could help pacemakers, sensors and other implantable devices keep people healthier for longer. The ...

If bladder nerves are damaged from surgery or from a disease, then a patient often loses sensation and is unaware that their bladder is full. Should you run to the bathroom now? Or can you hold it ...

Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from engineering, biology, and materials science to develop biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue ...
