Researchers create a new polymer that mimics the mechanical, thermal, and electromagnetic properties of brain tissue, driving ...

University of Missouri researchers are developing new ways to better simulate the complex nature of human brain tissue. For years, scientists have worked to uncover how the brain responds to ...

A 3D model accurately mimicking the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) in a laboratory environment has been successfully developed by research teams led by Professor Jinah Jang from the Departments of ...

Scientists at MIMETAS have published a new study describing a scalable, self-assembling human blood-brain barrier (BBB) model that combines physiological relevance with high-throughput capability. The ...

A research team led by Professor Dong-Woo Cho (Department of Mechanical Engineering, POSTECH) and Professor Jinah Jang (Departments of Mechanical Engineering, IT Convergence Engineering, Life Sciences ...

Advancing neurological disorder research requires model systems that more accurately reflect the human brain. 3D cell cultures, such as organoids and spheroids, have emerged as game-changers by better ...

Neurons are the cells in the brain responsible for sending messages to the rest of the body, and scientists have long thought that they are settled into one subtype once they develop from stem cells, ...
