In May and June of 2018, Australia's first near-complete skull of a sauropod—a group of long-tailed, long-necked, small-headed dinosaurs—was found on a sheep station northwest of Winton in Queensland.
Last week, an Australian "cultured meat" company called Vow made headlines with a meatball made from the flesh of a wooly mammoth—or something very much like it. Combining the technologies of lab-based cell culture and ...
A new way of using 3D printing to create infection-fighting materials for use as medical implants has been revealed in a new research paper, published in Advanced Materials Technologies.
Using an RNA sensor, MIT engineers have designed a new way to trigger cells to turn on a synthetic gene. Their approach could make it possible to create targeted therapies for cancer and other diseases, by ensuring that synthetic ...
An international team of scientists with the participation of researchers from NUST MISIS has proposed an alternative filler for 3D printed bone scaffolds based on calcium silicate. The material prevents the formation of ...
New research has revealed how mechanical forces caused by fetal movements drive skeletal development in the embryo.
A new electromagnetic device that enables high-precision measurements of a broad range of soft biological tissues, has established a new standard of precision in the mechanobiology field, say researchers. The method allows ...
The transport of mercury ions across intestinal epithelial cells can be studied for toxicology assessments by using animal models and static cell cultures. However, the concepts do not reliably replicate conditions of the ...
Building tissues and organs is one of the most complex and essential tasks that cells must accomplish during embryogenesis. In this collective task, cells communicate through a variety of communication methods, including ...
Glassfrogs make themselves transparent while they rest by taking red blood cells from circulation and concealing them in their livers. A multi-disciplinary team of biologists and biomedical engineers has shown how these frogs ...
