🧬 Take a look inside a 3D tissue bioprinting lab! NIH postdoctoral fellow Dr. Cristina Antich Acedo demonstrates how cutting-edge bioprinting can recreate human tissue structure. By combining different cell types and biomaterials, researchers can mimic real biological environments with precision. 🔬 This technology helps accelerate the path from discovery to treatment: • More predictive preclinical models • Reduced reliance on animal testing • Faster, more accurate drug development

WATCH: Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD on Charlie Kirk discussing new #NIH policy: “We are going to limit the amount of money the NIH is willing to pay to scientific journals for having the scientific publications paid for by taxpayers available for free. There’s no good reason for scientific journals to charge twice.”

NIH researchers are exploring how immature cells called stem cells develop into specialized cells like heart or lung cells. This research on how cells keep their DNA organized during that specialization process could help advance the development of lab grown organs for thousands of people waiting on a transplant.

Ranging in size from as small as a speck of pepper to the size of an apple seed, ticks can be hard to spot and remove, increasing the chance of exposure to tick-borne diseases. NIH researchers are exploring how to trigger a process found in animals, where molecules called cytokines activate the neurons that cause us to itch. This would allow humans to scratch off a tick before it can transmit disease. Watch the full video to learn more:
