We've written on this site before about scientists' attempts to create artificial organs that could help cure chronic diseases or allow patients to bypass lengthy waiting lists...
Pleurobot is not just a robot that swims; it’s the most realistic robotic animals ever programmed. This robotic salamander hails from the biorobotics lab at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL). The funky looking...
Scientists at an Ohio State University lab claim they have grown the first-ever almost fully formed human brain. The discovery has sparked hopes the brain could be used to improve medical understanding of neurological disease,...
2014 could be a landmark year for medical technology, as researchers just announced that they are close to creating the world's first 3D printed organ...
San Diego-based bioprinting company Organovo has successfully created functional 3D-printed livers—albeit very, very tiny ones. At half a millimeter deep by four millimeters wide, the livers will likely be used for medical...
Cornell bioengineers have combined 3-D printing with injectable gel molds to create an artificial ear that looks and functions like a real human ear. The new bioengineering method offers a more natural-feeling and painless...
Scientists from Caltech and Harvard University have created Medusoid, a free swimming artificial jellyfish created from the heart muscle cells of a rat...
