UCSF and Biohub Scientists Develop New Material to Grow More Consistent Lab Organs

UCSF and Biohub scientists created a seaweed-based material that produces more reliable lab-grown organs for research and potential human tissue replacement. This advancement could accelerate medical research and eventually enable manufacturing of organs for transplant.

Scientists at UC San Francisco and Biohub have developed a seaweed-derived material that helps miniature lab-grown organs form more consistently, a development researchers say could advance disease research and move medicine closer to manufacturing replacement human tissue. The findings, published…
