Taking a deep breath restores the ideal “layering” of lung fluids, according to a new experiment.
The development could help scientists develop patient-specific treatments and one day offer a lab-grown lung transplant ...
Since July, Dr. William Bartek, a pulmonologist at St. David's South Austin Medical Center, has been the first in the country to use a robotic-assisted scope to reach into the lungs to find tiny ...
What if scientists could build a realistic model of the human lung, not full-sized, but grown in the lab from living cells?
Respiratory diseases are a challenging problem to treat. Inhalable medicines are a promising solution that depends on the ability to deliver tiny particles known as aerosols to the correct location in ...
Laura Niklason engineered working lungs in the lab by stripping the cells from rat lungs and repopulating the remaining structure with fresh cells. Don Ingber created a "lung on a chip," which mimics ...
