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 ...

CYTOHUB CO-FOUNDER AITOR AGUIRRE NAMED TO LEAD CARDIAC TISSUE ENGINEERING AT NIH'S FIRST NATIONAL ORGANOID CENTER. Dr. Aguirre will direct the Tissue Engineering Laboratories at N ...

Suspended Tissue Open Microfluidic Patterning (STOMP) recreates natural cell habitats. While it’s easy to get caught up in the allure of 3D printed end-use parts, such as advanced aerospace engine ...

Retear and failure to heal are significant post-operative complications in rotator cuff repair surgery despite the use of commercially available rotator cuff repair grafts. Advances in tissue ...

In biomedical technology, tissue engineering for the ex-vivo production of skin or organs is becoming increasingly important. This requires biocompatible microfibers with enclosed microcapsules of ...

Losing a large amount of soft tissue from an injury or cancer may require reconstructive surgery. These surgeries typically rely on a structural framework that holds cells or tissues together made ...

Every year, thousands of patients with kidney failure face the same stark reality: Dialysis keeps them alive, but their quality of life is significantly reduced. Dialysis cannot replace all the ...

Angiogenesis is a process of forming hierarchical vascular networks in living tissues. Its complexity makes the controlled generation of blood vessels in laboratory conditions a highly challenging ...

These fields aim to facilitate healing and restore lost function in damaged or diseased tissues and organs by integrating scaffolds, cells, and biological signaling molecules. This combination aims to ...

Organ failure impacts millions of patients each year and costs hundreds of billions of US Dollars. Over the last 30 years, scientists have utilized a combination of tools, methods, and molecules of ...
