MIT scientists have developed a new 3D human brain tissue model that could change how researchers study neurological diseases. The platform, called Multicellular Integrated Brains or miBrains, ...

In the new study, the team used the model to demonstrate that as Alzheimer's pathology accumulates in the brain, specific types of immune cells called CT8+ T Cells surge into the brain and amplify the ...

To explore possible treatments for various diseases, either animal models or human cell cultures are usually used first; however, animal models do not always mimic human diseases well, and cultures ...

Researchers have developed a 3D-printed lung tissue model that could help scientists better study and treat diseases.

Lung diseases like tuberculosis and cystic fibrosis can be difficult to treat. In part, that's because the two-dimensional models researchers use to study the diseases don't accurately reflect the ...
