Four types of lung cells — including immune cells — function together on a chip environment that simulates respiration and ...

Respiratory diseases are a challenging problem to treat. Inhalable medicines are a promising solution that depends on the ability to deliver tiny particles known as aerosols to the correct location in ...

Scientists are now able to directly compare the different kinds of injury that mechanical ventilation causes to cells in the lungs. In a new study, using a ventilator-on-a-chip model, researchers ...

In a first-of-its-kind experiment, doctors in China transplanted a lung from a genetically modified pig into a brain-dead person. Similar experiments involving brain-dead patients have previously ...
