Lab-Grown Mini-Brain with Blood Vessels Could Help Slash 90% Neurodrug Failure Rate Johns Hopkins University researchers have developed a novel whole-brain organoid. This model is unique because it mimics a real brain’s blood vessels, which are essential for delivering nutrients and drugs to brain cells effectively. The inclusion of blood vessels in this lab-grown mini-brain […]
Chia seed-sized lab-grown hearts mimic real tissue to decode cardiac disease in children
Chia Seed-Sized Lab-Grown Hearts Mimic Real Tissue to Decode Cardiac Disease in Children Tiny lab-grown hearts are helping scientists crack the code of childhood heart disease and fast-track innovative solutions. These miniature organs, approximately the size of a chia seed, are revolutionizing the way researchers study cardiac conditions in young patients. In recent years, there […]
