Spanish researchers have developed a new strategy to manage the mechanical forces of cells and to adopt the three-dimensional form they want. The work, published in 'Science', opens the door to new applications in regenerative medicine and biohybrid robotics Read
Biological tissues have the ability to organize themselves and change their shape, so taking advantage of this behavior to design synthetic materials capable of adopting concrete figures is one of the great challenges of today’s bioengineering. A study, published in Science, presents a new strategy to ‘program’ these changes in form through chemical patterns. Research, led by the Institute of Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC), the Universitat P…
Japan approves first world stem cell treatment for Parkinson'sA ‘diet’ change succeeds in rejuvenating and generating improved stem cells in miceA team of scientists has developed a pioneering strategy to “program” changes in the form of biological tissues, controlling the orientation of their cells through chemical patterns, a finding that expands the boundaries of regenerative medicine, the design of intelligent living materials, and biohybrid…
Now, a study led by the Institute of Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC), the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya – BarcelonaTech (UPC) and the International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE), in collaboration with the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) of Barcelona, presents a new strategy to “program” these changes in form, controlling, through chemical patterns, how cells are oriented within the tissue. The result …
Researchers at IBEC and UPC develop a pioneering strategy to program the form of biological tissues. A key advance for regenerative medicine and biohybrid robotics published in Science. The post Scientists create living tissues capable of changing under programming was first published in La Voz de Michoacán.
Scientists Develop Living Tissues That Transform Shape on Command
In a groundbreaking collaboration spearheaded by leading research institutions in Catalonia, a transformative approach has been unveiled that harnesses the intrinsic behavior of living tissues to engineer programmable, shape-shifting materials. This pioneering study, conducted by scientists from the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC), the Polytechnic University of Catalonia – BarcelonaTech (UPC), the International Centre […]
