Tissue-Engineered Heart Steps Closer with Embedded Nanowires

By adding tiny nanowire electronic sensors into engineered 3D tissue structures, scientists have developed a way to monitor cell behavior that could advance the treatment of cardiac and neurological diseases and speed up the development of tissue-engineered hearts. Researchers already know how to control the three-dimensional shape of engineered tissue: they grow the cells on miniscule, sponge-like scaffolds. These are then implanted into patients or used to study the effect of new drugs in the lab... via Health News from Medical News Today Read More Here..
