Neural tissue engineering aims to mimic the brain's complex environment, the extracellular matrix, which supports nerve cell ...

Using human cells and cutting-edge technology, the team created a three-dimensional (3D) model that accurately simulates the ...

For the first time, scientists have grown functional, brain-like tissue without using any animal-derived materials or added ...

Advancing neurological disorder research requires model systems that more accurately reflect the human brain. 3D cell cultures, such as organoids and spheroids, have emerged as game-changers by better ...

As well as improving and speeding up drug development, the move could prevent the suffering and death of many thousands of laboratory animals. One goal of the US program is to simulate a whole human ...
