A 3D model accurately mimicking the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) in a laboratory environment has been successfully developed by research teams led by Professor Jinah Jang from the Departments of ...

For the first time, researchers have grown 3D models of the brain that include a wide variety of cell types from several people 1. These ‘village in a dish’ organoids could help to reveal why the ...

Traditional lab models are limited to experiments in culture flasks and on flat, plastic surfaces. The new methods used in this study create a 3D structure from blood vessel cells designed to ...

Endothelial cells lining the vasculature play a key role in sensing shear stress from blood flow and responding to disturbed hemodynamics by expressing pro-inflammatory molecules.
