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 ...

In biomedical research, so-called organs-on-a-chip, also referred to as microphysiological systems, are becoming increasingly important: by cultivating tissue structures in precisely controlled ...

An international research team led by MDI Biological Laboratory President Hermann Haller, M.D. and postdoctoral researcher Yannic Becker, Ph.D. has discovered that a little-known molecule, heparanase ...

Researchers have developed a groundbreaking coating that could make medical devices safer for millions of patients, reducing the risks associated with blood clots and dangerous bleeding. The new ...

Tissue engineers are finding ways to grow living organs and tissues from cells, with the aim of replacing diseased and ...
