Innovative 3D printed scaffolds offer new hope for bone healing

Researchers at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia have developed novel 3D printed PLA-CaP scaffolds that promote blood vessel formation, ensuring better healing and regeneration of bone tissue. Bone is…

Implantable sensors are helping scientists improve injury recovery

New research uses the implantable sensors to show how data-enabled resistance training can enhance bone healing. Tiny implantable sensors are helping University of Oregon researchers optimize the process of recovery…

Minuscule robots for targeted drug delivery

In the future, delivering therapeutic drugs exactly where they are needed within the body could be the task of miniature robots. Not little metal humanoid or even bio-mimicking robots; think…

Noninvasive imaging method can penetrate deeper into living tissue

Using high-powered lasers, this new method could help biologists study the body’s immune responses and develop new medicines. Metabolic imaging is a noninvasive method that enables clinicians and scientists to…

Implantable sensors unlock ability to continuously monitor inflammation

Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Chicago’s milestone achievement tracks protein levels in real time, enabling monitoring of inflammation at the cellular level. Proteins are the building blocks of life, and changes in…

New bioprinting technique creates functional tissue 10x faster

The novel high-throughput-bioprinting technique opens the door for tissue fabrication with high cell density at scale. Three-dimensional (3D) printing isn’t just a way to produce material products quickly. It also…
