Skin models as an alternative to animal testing

A Fraunhofer start-up aims to significantly reduce animal testing with skin models grown from human stem cells

05-Jun-2024 - Animal testing has long been a fixture of medical and pharmaceutical research, but alternative methods are growing more and more important. Innovative methods allow for research aimed directly at humans — without using animal testing as an intermediate step. TigerShark Science, a planned ...

Innovative bioreactor research processes and cryotechnologies improve active ingredient tests using human cell cultures

This is paving the way for efficient real-world use of these cell cultures in toxicity testing and drug discovery

06-May-2024 - Many new drug candidates end up failing because they cause serious side effects in clinical trials. This is a common occurrence if the cells used come from animal tissue, for example. Specially prepared cell cultures made from human tissue known as human induced pluripotent stem (hiPS) cells ...

Scientists Find an Unusual Weapon Against Virus

Boosting Weak Immune System

19-Oct-2023 - Infections with cytomegalovirus (CMV) are extremely common and often pose no major threat to the vast majority of people. They can however be deadly for people whose immune system is weakened, e.g., after bone marrow transplantation. Current treatments against CMV infections are very limited and ...

Building muscle in the lab

This provides a potential for treating patients with muscle diseases – and for those who would like to eat meat, but don’t want to kill animals.

18-Aug-2023 - ETH Zurich Professor Ori Bar-​Nur and his team grow muscle cells in the laboratory. In this case, they are mouse cells, but the researchers are also interested in human and cow cells. Promising applications resonate with both: human muscle tissue cultured in the lab could be used in surgery, ...
