Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt researchers have built the first lung-on-a-chip with a working immune system, a breakthrough with the potential to reshape how we study disease, move beyond animal testing, ...

The miniature lung provides insights into specific lung function and pathology, allowing doctors to design precise therapies according to patients’ genetic makeup. A breathing lung on a microchip? A ...

The UAB Lung Biology Program provides a cutting-edge and interdisciplinary hub for scientists, clinicians, and the next generation of researchers to accelerate understanding of lung biology through ...

A method has been reported by researchers from Tsinghua University in China, which enables the efficient and high-throughput production of lung cancer assembloids. These assembloids are ...

Researchers have developed a human in vitro model that closely mimics the complexities of radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) and radiation dose sensitivity of the human lung. Using a previously ...

The lung is one of the tissues most sensitive to radiation in the human body. People exposed to high radiation doses following nuclear incidents develop radiation-induced lung injury (RILI), which ...

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