Working with the Mayo Clinic, the University of North Florida teaches a course called Anatomy in 3D designed to prepare for a growing medical field.

A model of your very own kidney made entirely from soft and pliable polymers? Researchers at two CU campuses are on the cusp of 3D printing realistic replicas of human anatomy.

UCLA researchers have created miniature stem cell-based organoid models of human lungs, hearts and brains to study how ...

What if we could 3D print new hearts and other organs on demand, using cells from a patient’s own body? Stanford bioengineer Mark Skylar-Scott is working on making 'science fiction' reality.

Emergency medicine providers in rural hospitals in Vermont are now able to practice their advanced life-saving skills on 3D-printed models by UVMMC.

Endothelial cells—the cells that line the inside of real blood vessels in the human body—can settle inside these channel networks. This creates a model that closely mimics the structure and ...

These patient-specific organ models, which include 3D-printed soft sensor arrays integrated into the structure, are fabricated using specialized inks and a customized 3D printing process.

In a landmark new study, researchers have recreated the human forebrain using 3D brain organoids — tiny cellular models of the brain — that they say successfully model late stages of brain ...

Medical science is a key step closer to the cryopreservation of brain slices used in neurological research, pancreatic cells for the treatment of diabetes and even whole organs, thanks to a new ...

Scientists have developed the world's most sophisticated laboratory model of the human body, creating a system of miniaturized organs that can be used to detect harmful and adverse effects of ...
