Human fat creates organoids for bone marrow, neural tissue, and insulin secretion
The study shows that fat tissue, when processed and cultured in a specific way, can self-organize into structures resembling ...
Rice University neuroscientist Chong Xie leads a team that has won a $2.9 million grant from the NIH to develop a state-of-the-art implantable neural electrode system. HOUSTON – (July 17, 2024) – Rice ...
For the first time, scientists have grown functional, brain-like tissue without using any animal-derived materials or added biological coatings. The development opens the door to more controlled and ...

Light-based brain implant sends data straight into neural tissue
Light is quietly becoming the new language of brain technology. Instead of thick wires and skull-penetrating electrodes, a ...
What are Tissue Engineering Scaffolds? Tissue engineering scaffolds are three-dimensional structures designed to support cell growth, migration, and differentiation for the regeneration of damaged or ...
A startup based on research conducted at Penn State is developing a soft, minimally invasive neural implant intended to ...
Organoids are bits of neural tissue that model human brain development. Their use in science makes some uneasy, in part because the brain is so closely tied to our sense of self.
