Working with three-dimensional pancreatic models (organoids), derived from mouse cells, researchers combined computer simulations with experiments to find out what controls the shape of lumens ...

Most chronic and age-related diseases result from tissue failure. Cells lose function, structures degrade, and organs stop ...

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 ...

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 ...

Bioprinting is rapidly moving from research labs into commercial reality, and it is reshaping how the pharmaceutical and ...

Regenerative medicine combines tissue engineering and cell therapies to repair or replace damaged human tissues and organs. Key applications include treating osteoarthritis with mesenchymal stem cells ...

Hydrogels are often used as scaffolds in tissue engineering. Living cells infused into the material can, theoretically, grow through the gel until an entire piece of tissue forms. But to grow well, ...

A team of biomedical researchers led by Michael Mak, PhD, in the Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony Brook University, has developed a new method of bioprinting physiological materials. Called ...

Explore our campus, meet lecturers and current students, and learn more about what it's like to study at Manchester. Learn how to research strategies to repair, replace and ultimately regenerate ...
