Aligning Living Cells Within 3D Printed Tissues Using Ultrasound
One of the ways of making bioengineered tissues is to embed living cells within 3D printed constructs. This is already a common practice in labs around the world, but researchers at North Carolina State University have figured out a way of...

New Microscope Sees Large Groups of Neurons in Living Brains
Most current methods of looking at the activity of the brains of living animals are very limited in their field of view and/or frame rate. This makes it difficult to understand the complex activity taking place inside the brain that involves...

Light and Sound Induce Brainwaves to Clear Brains of Amyloid Plaques
Alzheimer's disease has no cure at this point. Only a few therapies that try to slow the progression are available, but there's a light, and some sound, at the end of the tunnel. Researchers at MIT and Georgia Tech have now shown they can reduce...

Bioreactors Inside Body Grow New Bones for Transplantation
Injuries and disease often necessitate putting something in place of where natural bone is. While there are custom-made artificial orthopedic implants and native bone grafts, researchers from Rice University have now shown a new and better...

Macular Degeneration Treated with Viral Delivery of Gene Into Eye
A number of degenerative eye diseases are related to photoreceptors no longer functioning properly. There can be a host of reasons that photoreceptors don't work, but soon it may not be that important to know why the disease is happening. That...
