The Modelling-Informed Medicine Centre will create computer models or digital twins of organs and diseases to better understand how diseases of the lungs, liver, and kidneys progress, to discover and ...

A method has been reported by researchers from Tsinghua University in China, which enables the efficient and high-throughput production of lung cancer assembloids. These assembloids are ...

A human cell culture model of the lung's most important immune cells, alveolar macrophages, helped make a key finding that is prompting researchers to rethink the role of another immune protein. A ...

Respiratory diseases are a challenging problem to treat. Inhalable medicines are a promising solution that depend on the ability to deliver tiny particles known as aerosols to the correct location in ...

An innovative computer model of a human lung is helping scientists simulate, for the first time, how a burst of radiation interacts with the organ on a cell-by-cell level. This research, carried out ...

3D-printed lungs made with living cells could help to improve lung disease prevention and treatment—and potentially one day offer a lab-grown option for use in organ transplants. University of ...

For the first time, scientists are able to directly compare the different kinds of injury that mechanical ventilation causes to cells in the lungs. In a new study, using a ventilator-on-a-chip model ...

Biological assailants like fungi, bacteria, and viruses continuously test natural defenses that have evolved over millennia. Newer and stranger particles that originate from burning fuels, harmful ...

Researchers from Australia and Bangladesh have developed an artificial intelligence model capable of spotting and distinguishing between multiple types of lung disease. Called LungNet, the tool ...

An AI model found that 28% of non-smokers are at high risk of developing lung cancer, with 2.9% of high-risk individuals developing the disease within six years. When you purchase through links on our ...
