The new device will make it easier to test drugs and show experts how tissues develop. This will lead to better methods for raising them.

A team of scientists from the RIKEN National Science Institute in Japan has developed a device that uses hydrogel layers in a cubic structure, allowing researchers to create three-dimensional artificially grown organs. This was reported by SciTech Daily.

Such a device could revolutionize the way drugs are tested. In addition, this technology could provide insights into how tissues are formed and lead to better methods for growing artificial organs.

Experts have long tried to create organoids (tissues similar to real organs, but grown in a laboratory) to recreate real biological development. The emergence of organelles that function like real tissues is important for drug development because it is necessary to understand how they move in different tissues.

It will also give you an idea of ​​the process of organ development, another step in the growth of living organs.

However, developing organoids is not an easy task. In nature, tissues form through a complex process, while the cells of organelles grown in the laboratory usually form under similar conditions. For this, 3D printing or microfluidic technology can be used, which require sophisticated equipment and technical skills.

Earlier it was reported that scientists for the first time in history transfused human blood, grown in the laboratory.

Scientists have created a robot that can directly print tissue on the human body
