Neuron-D, a start-up in Dresden, Germany, wants to change this with a hydrogel-based 3D cell-culture model in which neurons behave more as they do in people. Read more about The Spinoff Prize ...

Researchers of the Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands (TU Delft) have developed a 3D-printed 'brain-like environment' where neurons grow similarly to a real brain.

With the aid of a 3D printer, researchers at Uppsala University have succeeded in creating a model that resembles human nerve tissue.

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed.

With the aid of a 3D printer, researchers at Uppsala University have succeeded in creating a model that resembles human nerve tissue. The model, which can be cultured from the patient's own cells ...
