Biomedical engineering research lab aims to improve cancer treatments
Some prostate cancer patients unnecessarily undergo surgery or harsh treatments because science fails to identify the differences between slow-growing and aggressive forms of the disease. Researchers at Case Western Reserve University and Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine are developing te...

New material system permits 3-D patterning to regulate stem cell behavior
Stem cells can be coaxed to grow into new bone or new cartilage better and faster when given the right molecular cues and room inside a water-loving gel, researchers at Case Western Reserve University show. By creating a three-dimensional checkerboard—one with alternating highly connected and less ...
