When biomedical researchers need to test their latest ideas, they often turn to engineered human tissue that mimics the responses in our own bodies. It's become an important intermediary step before ...

Using postmortem human brain tissue, three-dimensional imaging revealed vascular Aβ deposition patterns and a lower density of parenchymal amyloid plaques surrounding Aβ-positive vessels. Smooth ...

Microscopic images of human tissue are a cornerstone of biomedical research and clinical diagnostics. Yet despite their ...

Researchers have developed a model of human physiology in the form of a multi-organ chip consisting of engineered human heart, bone, liver, and skin that are linked by vascular flow with circulating ...

AUGUSTA, Ga. (Aug. 2, 2022) – Disease of the microscopic blood vessels that feed the white matter of our brain is associated with worse cognitive function and memory deficits in individuals with ...

A multi-institutional team led by the Chinese Academy of Sciences has constructed a proteomic atlas of human aging across 13 organs, revealing tissue-specific aging clocks, transcriptome-proteome ...

Andrei Georgescu, PhD, CEO of Vivodyne, was hoping to couple his interests in science and engineering when he chose UPenn for his graduate research. His goal was to build on his background in ...

Hidden inside every organ, microscopic fibers form a scaffolding that quietly shapes how we move, think, and heal. For the first time, scientists have produced detailed maps of these fiber webs across ...
