Brazilian researchers have used three-dimensional (3D) printing to develop an artificial skin model with properties that are more similar to those of human skin. The structure, called Human Skin ...

Until now, artificial gels have either managed to replicate high stiffness or natural skin's self-healing properties, but not both. Now, a team of researchers has developed a hydrogel with a unique ...

Zoom in on your skin, and you will see several tiny structures. This section of human skin shows a detailed view of both hair follicles and sweat glands. Zoom in on your skin, and you will see several ...

Human skin transmits sensory information as electrical pulses, or spikes, that encode signals related to pressure and pain. NRE-skin mimics this biological process by converting pressure ...

Growing cells in the laboratory is an art that humans have mastered decades ago. Recreating entire three-dimensional tissues is much more challenging. Empa researchers are developing a new ...

According to the researchers, their new neuromorphic robotic e-skin is based on a structure inspired by the human nervous ...
