A flash of electricity in milliseconds, followed by a chemical wave and the tissue begins to grow. Researchers at TU Dresden and the Max Planck Institute have discovered how electrical signals control the healing of organs. A small fish provided the decisive insights. | more
Over two million people die of liver disease every year. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute in Dresden have now developed a three-dimensional liver model from real patient cells. The mini-liver can mimic important functions and should help to better understand diseases, test new drugs and develop personalized therapies. The study was published in Nature. | more
