The Suspended Tissue Open Microfluidic Patterning, or STOMP device, is small enough to fit on a fingertip, and is expected to advance human tissue modeling for research on a variety of complex diseases. Credit: University of Washington The device is compact enough to rest on a fingertip and is compatible with current tissue-engineering technology. A newly developed 3D-printed device offers …

Despite its lack of upgradeable system memory, Framework has tried to make its Framework Desktop a welcoming platform for upgraders and modders, releasing 3D-printable versions of a few case parts and generally sticking to standard-sized parts and standard connectors. Often, it’s independent creators who are making the weirdest and most interesting mods for Framework’s devices, but PC cooling company Noctua …

Credit: McAlpine Research Group / University of Minnesota A breakthrough in stem cell biology has been 3D-printed in Minnesota—and the lab results show promise for spinal cord injury recovery, and even reversal. A research team at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities demonstrated a groundbreaking process that combines 3D printing, stem cell biology, and lab-grown tissues to provide spinal cord …

Hundreds of people lined up outside of the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum on Monday morning (July 28), waiting for the doors to open and the curtains to drop on five newly renovated galleries devoted to aviation and space exploration history. The museum’s flagship building on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. was on track to have more than …

Summary: Scientists have developed a 3D-printed implant that delivers targeted electrical stimulation to damaged areas of the spinal cord, promoting nerve regeneration. The implant mimics the spinal cord’s structure with a fine, electrically conductive mesh, boosting neuron and stem cell growth in lab tests. By adjusting the fibre layout, the team improved the implant’s effectiveness, opening possibilities for wider medical …
