Uncover the innovations in creating living heart tissue that promise to transform organ regeneration and medical therapies.

Heart valve disease has no effective long-term treatment, and people who suffer from it have to endure repeated, invasive surgeries throughout their lives to survive. Researchers at Georgia Tech and ...

Researchers have identified the origin of cardiac cells using 3D images of a heart forming in real-time, inside a living mouse embryo. Researchers at UCL and the Francis Crick Institute have, for the ...

Now, Georgia Tech researchers have created a 3D-printed heart valve made of bioresorbable materials and designed to fit an individual patient's unique anatomy. Once implanted, the valves will be ...

Researchers have published a new 3D bioprinting method that brings the field of tissue engineering one step closer to being able to 3D print a full-sized, adult human heart. A team of researchers from ...

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh have developed a new 3D bioprinting method that can produce any part of the heart, from tiny capillaries through to full-scale heart ...

While in its early stages, bioprinting of human tissue is an emerging technology that is opening up some exciting possibilities, including the potential to one day 3D print entire human organs. This ...

In this way, the tiny heart was built up layer-by-layer, with the matrix temporarily holding everything in the desired shape. That shape was based on an MRI scan of the volunteer's real heart. The ...

An interdisciplinary team of researchers has developed a virtual 3D heart, digitally showcasing the heart's unique network of neurons for the first time. Using the rat heart as a model, the ...

In the intro to the HBO sci-fi series Westworld, a 3D printer churns out humanoid robots, delicately assembling the incredible complexities of the human form so that those robots can go on to—spoiler ...
