(Nanowerk News) Researchers at the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) have made a significant breakthrough in the development of reliable in-vitro digestion models. This ...

For this study, the researchers measured the digestive organs of 45 people who donated their remains to the Anatomical Gifts Program at the Duke University School of Medicine. In addition to shedding ...

The messy business of how our digestive system works is revealed in a Science Week show by the London Science Museum that offers visitors a step-by-step explanation of what happens to the food we eat.

The communities formed by human gut microbes can now be predicted more accurately with a new computer model developed in a collaboration between biologists and engineers, led by the University of ...

A new computer model developed by researchers helps predict human gut microbes. The making of the model also suggests a route toward scaling from the 25 microbe species explored to the thousands that ...
