MIT scientists have developed a new 3D human brain tissue model that could change how researchers study neurological diseases. The platform, called Multicellular Integrated Brains or miBrains, ...

A 3D-printed 'brain phantom' has been developed, which is modeled on the structure of brain fibers and can be imaged using a special variant of magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI). The scientific team ...

Scientists have 3D-printed the world's first human brain replica that grows and behaves like natural brain tissue in what's seen as a potential game changer in diagnosing neurological disorders like ...

A research team led by Professor Dong-Woo Cho (Department of Mechanical Engineering, POSTECH) and Professor Jinah Jang (Departments of Mechanical Engineering, IT Convergence Engineering, Life Sciences ...

“The past decade has seen a revolution in brain cell cultures, moving from traditional monolayer cultures to more organ-like, organized 3D cultures—i.e. brain organoids,” the researchers wrote. “These ...
