Until now, conventional 3D cell cultures have often been either too rigid or too unstable to realistically reproduce the complex interactions between brain cells. Researchers at Kiel University (CAU) ...

There is growing use of three-dimensional (3D) cell culture models to attempt to reproduce cell-to-cell and cell-to-matrix interactions occurring in vivo. The goal is to create model systems for ...

Examples of metamaterial blocks with different unit cells that are studied in the paper. These blocks were additively manufactured from a polymer-based material using a hobby-type 3D printer, Bambu ...

3D cell cultures are no longer a futuristic idea. They’re already reshaping how we study diseases like cancer, offering more realistic models of how cells behave in the body. But despite their ...

Growing cells in three dimensions is critical for studying how tissues behave in the body, yet most laboratory platforms remain either too simple or too complex to use widely. Researchers now present ...

Researchers developed a microfluidic chip with 3D-printed microstructures that moves droplets precisely, captures cells efficiently, and quickly forms cell spheroids for improved lab-grown tissue ...
