What if scientists could build a realistic model of the human lung, not full-sized, but grown in the lab from living cells?

Researchers have developed a 3D-printed lung tissue model that could help scientists better study and treat diseases.

The development could help scientists develop patient-specific treatments and one day offer a lab-grown lung transplant ...

Lung diseases like tuberculosis and cystic fibrosis can be difficult to treat. In part, that's because the two-dimensional models researchers use to study the diseases don't accurately reflect the ...

D printed lungs from USask enable advanced disease research - showing promise for improving the study of tuberculosis and cystic fibrosis.

Scientists at Kyoto University have developed a groundbreaking "lung-on-a-chip" that can mimic the distinct regions of human lungs—airways and alveoli—to study how viruses like COVID-19 affect them ...

For the first time, scientists are able to directly compare the different kinds of injury that mechanical ventilation causes to cells in the lungs. In a new study, using a ventilator-on-a-chip model ...

A genetically modified pig lung was transplanted into a brain-dead man and functioned for nine days, according to a newly published report. There has been some recent success transplanting pig kidneys ...
