Model produced with 3D printer In the current study, the researchers used human stem cells generated from skin and programmed to become motor neuron progenitors, a type of immature nerve cell that ...

For the first time, researchers at University of California San Diego have used rapid 3D printing technologies to create a spinal cord, then successfully implanted that scaffolding, loaded with ...

Stem cells-based treatments are offering tantalizing prospectives within neuronal tissue engineering, as a versatile tool to promote nerve regeneration after injuries, such as the Spinal Cord Injury ...

Miniature organs can now be bioprinted for use as experimental models to test drugs and study disease mechanisms. Tests performed by researchers in Brazil and elsewhere have shown brain cells to be ...

With the aid of a 3D printer, researchers at Uppsala University have succeeded in creating a model that resembles human nerve tissue. The model, which can be cultured from the patient's own cells ...
