Discover the power of hydrogel: researchers at Penn State mimic tissue behaviors using special hydrogels for potential ...

A new hydrogel material combines the characteristics of biological tissues with the electronic functionalities of ...

A biomaterial that can mimic certain behaviors within biological tissues could advance regenerative medicine, disease modeling, soft robotics and more, according to researchers at Penn State.

Researchers have developed a way of bioprinting tissues that change shape as a result of cell-generated forces, in the same way that it happens in biological tissues during organ development.

It's a completely different way to think about computation, and it ties into what we're seeing with biological tissues." The researchers explain that the amnioserosa, a one-cell-thick epithelial ...
