Treating pulmonary diseases is pivotal in healthcare since they are the third leading cause of mortality globally. To aid medical experts in diagnosis, various studies have been conducted using ...

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 ...

Chelsea Magin joined CU Denver|CU Anschutz in 2016 and holds appointments in Biomedical Engineering (primary), Pediatrics, and Medicine. She holds multiple degrees including a bachelor’s degree in ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human 'lung-on-chip' model using stem cells taken from only one person. These chips simulate breathing motions and lung ...

Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumours 1. Its incidence rate and mortality rate rank first in the world 2. It is the main cause of cancer death for men and women worldwide. Lung ...

Dr. Emmanuel Osei has developed a way to 3D print tissue that resembles a living lung. This work could change how lung disease is studied and improve health options for those living with the illness.
