New York Tech and UC Irvine develop a 3D-printed human colon model to advance cancer drug testing and gastrointestinal ...

Due to advancements in genetic engineering, small animal models are continuing to change in response to market needs. Model developers strive to better reflect the role of this important asset in both ...

LaBonne is president of the Society for Developmental Biology and the Erastus Otis Haven professor of molecular biosciences at Northwestern University. Imagine a world without lifesaving medicines, ...

Medical researchers have used animals, particularly mice, to mimic disease and study biological phenomena. The origin of mice as a standard model system for scientific research can extend back to the ...

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have developed a 3D human colon model integrated with bioelectronics to ...

Animal models are established, important tools for preclinical safety and efficacy testing. Companies are advancing more “humanized” models to better reflect human responses, while at the same time ...

The development could help scientists develop patient-specific treatments and one day offer a lab-grown lung transplant ...

Neurobrucellosis is a severe long-term complication of brucellosis, one of the most common bacterial zoonotic diseases. Scientists have now developed a novel animal model that indicates that innate ...

UC Irvine researchers have invented an artificial colon to be used in disease anaysis and drug assessment. They envision taking a patient’s own cells from a tumor biopsy and growing a personalized ...
