Regenerative medicine holds the extraordinary promise that future patients in need of new cells, tissues or organs will no longer have to rely on donors. Organ shortages and cell type mismatches will ...

Southwest Research Institute demonstrated its single-use 3D bioreactor to produce induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs), derived from adult skin, blood, and other somatic cells. Useful for ...

A bandage usually covers a wound. This one comes with a bonus: it gives repair instructions. Researchers at Rice University ...

A novel method has enabled scientists to 3D-print structures into live cells, paving the way for a new class of intracellular bioengineering tools and applications. In a first, scientists from the ...

Bioengineering, the application of engineering design and analysis principles to biological systems, is an extensive field. With applications in immunotherapy, gene therapy and organ-on-a-chip models, ...

Embryonic development is one of the most dynamic biological processes in nature. Cells and tissues organize and reorganize ...

An interdisciplinary team of scientists has developed a technology to decode immune cell communication. By measuring interactions between cells, the method offers insights into how the human body ...

Researchers have found a way to reprogram disease evolution and design tumors that are easier to treat. They created a modular genetic circuit that turns cancer cells into a 'Trojan horse,' causing ...

Researchers engineered cells to secrete cytokines from a wound patch. Sustained local delivery accelerated healing in rodent ...
