Zoom in on your skin, and you will see several tiny structures. This section of human skin shows a detailed view of both hair follicles and sweat glands. Zoom in on your skin, and you will see several ...

A team of mechanical engineers from University College Dublin has analysed the mechanical properties of skin removed from cadavers to settle a debate that has perplexed anatomists for 150 years.

Growing cells in the laboratory is an art that humans have mastered decades ago. Recreating entire three-dimensional tissues is much more challenging. Empa researchers are developing a new ...

Prenatal human skin atlas and organoid will accelerate research into congenital diseases and lead to clinical applications for regenerative medicine. For the first time, researchers have created a ...

Researchers in Japan are exploring a future where the body itself becomes a health monitor, no screens or batteries required.

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2025.240152, discusses how multi-photon bionic skin realizes high-precision haptic visualization for reconstructive perception. Human ...

Empa researchers are working together with clinical partners on a model of human skin. The model will allow scientists to simulate skin diseases and thus better understand them. The skin is the ...

Growing cells in the laboratory is an art that humans have mastered decades ago. Recreating entire three-dimensional tissues is much more challenging. Researchers are developing a new hydrogel-based ...
