Lungs are among the heaviest organs in the human body. The right lung typically weighs about 1.4 pounds (0.6 kg), while the left lung is slightly smaller and weighs approximately 1.25 pounds (0.56 ...

It's all part of a UNF undergraduate class called Anatomy in 3D taught by Laura Habegger, assistant professor of biology, and Grant Bevill, associate professor of mechanical engineering.

Scientists at the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine have created the world's most sophisticated lab model of the human body, developing a full system of miniaturized organs known as ...

In recent studies, microfluidic models of different organs, such as the lung, liver and kidney, have been fluidically linked to create human 'body-on-a-chip' models 43.

Your anatomy operates like a machine, it's success hinging on the work of over 70 organs, each with a unique function. From the heart's blood-pumping ability to the liver's filtering power, each ...

So far, researchers also used 3-D printing in medicine and dentistry to create dental implants, prosthetics, and models for surgeons to practice on before they make cuts on a patient. But many ...
