Uncover the innovations in creating living heart tissue that promise to transform organ regeneration and medical therapies.

In a world-first, scientists at Tel Aviv University have successfully 3D printed a tiny human heart using real human cells. This innovation could reshape the future of organ transplants, offering a ...

The models can be used to plan surgeries and in the future could be used to help trial new drugs. A healthy heart beats at a steady rate, between 60 and 100 times a minute. That’s not the case for all ...

A team of Stanford University engineers, cardiologists, and biology experts are at work to bioprint a fully functioning human heart to implant into a pig. Inside one of the labs that focuses on ...

Wearing blue rubber gloves, Molly Dobrow reached into a metal vat of diluted sodium hydroxide and pulled out two dripping-wet models of human organs: a heart and a set of lungs. Made of Elastico, a ...

Miniature organs have a new lifeline. Mimicking the way early human embryos grow blood vessels, scientists nudged multiple types of mini organs to sprout their own vascular networks. Also called ...

One month after a Maryland man received an experimental pig heart transplant, the patient is doing well and shows no sign of infection or rejection of the organ, doctors say. "We are withdrawing all ...

Working with the European Aeronautics Defense & Space (EADS) — best known as the maker of the Airbus jet — French researchers have developed a pioneering new artificial heart. Dr. Alain Carpentier, ...
