NEWS FROM THE FIELD
AI Accurately Predicts Cancer Outcomes From Tissue Samples
UT Southwestern Medical Center
Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model which analyzes the spatial arrangement of cells in tissue samples to accurately predict outcomes for cancer patients. Researchers Produce Artificial Cells With Potential for Drug Delivery and Tissue Engineering
News-Medical.Net
Researchers at the University of Strathclyde, in collaboration with institutions in Germany and Switzerland, have developed artificial cells using a process called biocatalytic polymerization-induced self-assembly (bioPISA). These synthetic cells can produce various proteins and have potential applications in drug delivery and tissue engineering. CellCharter Reveals Spatial Cell Niches Associated With Tissue Remodeling and Cell Plasticity
Nature Genetics
CellCharter is an advanced algorithmic framework designed to efficiently identify and characterize cellular niches in tissues. It outperformed existing methods, providing a valuable resource for decoding the link between tissue architectures and cell plasticity across various data types and technologies. Biophysicists Uncover Powerful Symmetries in Living Tissue
WIRED
Researchers at Leiden University have discovered that sheets of epithelial tissue exhibit properties similar to liquid crystals. By identifying different symmetries at various scales, the scientists hope to apply fluid dynamics simulations to predict how human tissues move and deform, offering insights into processes like wound healing and cancer metastasis. Scientists Built a Functional Computer With Human Brain Tissue
Science Alert
Scientists at Indiana University Bloomington have developed Brainoware, a computer system that integrates actual human brain tissue. Brainoware demonstrated tasks like speech recognition and equation prediction, although ethical considerations regarding the use of human neural tissue need to be carefully addressed, according to researchers from Johns Hopkins University.
