During the early stages of life, organs do not just appear in their final form. They take shape through a process of controlled bending, twisting, and folding. These changes help cells organize into ...

Researchers at University of Galway have developed a way of bioprinting tissues that change shape as a result of cell-generated forces, in the same way that it happens in biological tissues during ...

Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG)Aug 9 2024 A key question that remains in biology and biophysics is how three-dimensional tissue shapes emerge during animal ...

A key question that remains in biology and biophysics is how three-dimensional tissue shapes emerge during animal development. Research teams have now found a mechanism by which tissues can be ...
