With fewer than 10 individuals left alive and captive breeding off the table, the vaquita has almost no margin for error. A ...

For someone suffering from brittle bone disease, life is fraught with complications. The slightest misstep, a seemingly harmless fall or even one false move can be all it takes to leave them with a ...

Scientists have digitally reconstructed the skeleton of the world's rarest marine mammal, creating a 3D model to support ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

Typically, bone marrow research relies heavily on animal models and oversimplified cell cultures in the laboratory. Now, researchers from the Department of Biomedicine at the University of Basel and ...

University of Texas at Dallas mechanical engineers have designed a 3D-printed femur that could help doctors prepare for surgeries to repair bones and develop treatments for bone tumors. The engineers, ...

Scientists have combined laser 3D printing technology and an alternate soaking process to construct complex 3D structures that mimic bone microstructure. This is the first demonstration of this ...

The bone marrow serves as the main site of hematopoiesis in humans, giving rise to red and white blood cells. This space is highly organized into distinct regions, or niches, that perform different ...

UD engineer Michael Hast leads an NIH-funded effort to identify impaired bone healing earlier with MRI-based computer models Healing a broken bone can take months, and knowing whether recovery is on ...

You might think that glass has no business acting as a replacement for bone, but it turns out the two materials have many similarities. For a new study published in ACS Nano, researchers developed a ...
