What organ has the surface area of a tennis court, expands and contracts 17,000 times every day, and contains passageways that range from centimeter-sized tubes to vessels that are narrower than the ...

In this video, I use a fun and easy model to break down how your lungs really work. With just a straw, a cup, and some balloons, I help you visualize the respiratory system and explain why breathing ...

Researchers from Australia and Bangladesh have developed an artificial intelligence model capable of spotting and distinguishing between multiple types of lung disease. Called LungNet, the tool ...

The Modelling-Informed Medicine Centre will create computer models or digital twins of organs and diseases to better understand how diseases of the lungs, liver, and kidneys progress, to discover and ...

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 ...

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 ...
