Growing a cerebral tract in a microscale brain model
Researchers have grown a working model of a cerebral tract in the lab
Fluidics and acoustics combine to reveal biophysical properties of cells
A low-cost, flow-based acoustofluidic cytometer measures the biophysical properties of single cells, independent of cell size
Hachimoji DNA doubles the genetic code
“Alien” DNA will be important for future synthetic biology applications and expands the range of molecular structures that might be capable of supporting life
Mobile bedside bioprinter can heal wounds
Scientists have created a mobile skin bioprinting system that allows bi-layered skin to be printed directly into a wound
Piezoelectric nanoparticles promise improved brain tumour treatments
Piezoelectric nanoparticles that target and electrically stimulate tumour cells upon exposure to ultrasound could enhance the treatment of brain tumours
Oscillation in muscle tissue
When a muscle grows or a muscle injury heals, some of the stem cells develop into new muscle cells. A research team has now described how this process is regulated
Increasingly complex mini-brains
Scientists produce brain organoids with primitive eyes using computational fluid dynamics
The development of brain stem cells into new nerve cells
Stem cells are true “jacks-of-all-trades” of our bodies, as they can turn into the many different cell types of all organs
