Blood vessels are like big-city highways; full of curves, branches, merges, and congestion. Yet for years, lab models ...

In biomedical research, so-called organs-on-a-chip, also referred to as microphysiological systems, are becoming increasingly ...

Engineers from Texas A&M University (TAMU) have developed a groundbreaking tiny chip that mimics real human blood vessels, ...

Scientists from TU Wien and Keio University have developed a scalable method to create artificial blood vessels in ...

Miniature organs on a chip could allow us to do scientific studies with great precision, without having to resort to animal testing. The main problem, however, is that artificial tissue needs blood ...

Researchers have established a method to create a network of perfusable blood vessels in organs-on-chips, enabling better ...

Each 2.54 square centimetre (a square inch) of human skin has six metres (20ft) of blood vessels. Veins hold about 65 per cent of the body's blood and have one-way valves tohelp blood move.

Nearly half of those are due to injured blood vessels cutting ... have an available blood vessel. But they’re not ideal. “Every time you put a foreign body in the human body, the chance ...

The bioinspired sensors mimic the gut to prolong their stay in the blood, enabling real-time monitoring that can detect ...

Researchers have developed a cutting-edge chip technology capable of precisely mimicking the interactions between cancer cells and blood vessels, akin to the human body environment. This ...

Layer by layer, an artificial blood vessel is printed to replicate the strength ... More importantly, it narrows the performance gap between manually engineered materials and real human vessels. "It ...
