For the first time, a breathing lung model has been made using cells from only one person. Announced on January 1, the development comes from researchers at the Francis Crick Institute in London and ...

A novel iPSC-derived lung-on-chip model mimics human alveolar tissue, revealing macrophage-driven tuberculosis responses.

Using human stem cells, scientists have created a miniature lung that mimics breathing and TB infection, opening new ...

Respiratory infections are among the leading causes of illness and death in the elderly, driven by immune aging, chronic ...

Chronic lung infections pose a disproportionate threat to older adults, yet the biological mechanisms behind age-specific ...

Lung diseases like tuberculosis and cystic fibrosis can be difficult to treat. In part, that's because the two-dimensional models researchers use to study the diseases don't accurately reflect the ...

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 ...

University of Delaware Assistant Professor Catherine Fromen and current graduate student Dominic Hoffman work with an adaptable lung model that can replicate realistic breathing maneuvers and offer ...
