Human embryo models capable of synthesizing their own blood have been developed, in an advance that could lead to new ...

University of Cambridge scientists have used human stem cells to create three-dimensional embryo-like structures that ...

Bioprinting holds the promise of engineering organs on demand. Now, researchers have solved one of the major bottlenecks—how to create the fine networks of blood vessels needed to keep organs alive.

Blood vessels are essential to nearly all tissues, delivering nutrients and oxygen, regulating hemostasis, and modulating inflammation. Recreating functional vascular networks is foundational to both ...

A new study looking at deadly animal African trypanosomiasis has revealed how the parasite Trypanosoma congolense evades the immune system and drives severe disease in livestock. Researchers from the ...

Researchers have developed a 3D-printed lung tissue model that could help scientists better study and treat diseases.

Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to every other organ, and blood-forming stem cells must make about 200 billion new red blood cells each day to keep the oxygen flowing. For many years, ...
