1,500 ancient European genomes reveal previously hidden waves of migration, study finds

Researchers have identified three major waves of migration in early Europe, using a new technique to analyze human genomes. The analysis revealed that Scandinavia was a crucial hotspot for people as they traveled northward and dispersed elsewhere during the first millennium. In a study published Wednesday (Jan. 1) in the journal Naturethe researchers detailed a […]

Bioprinting breakthrough uses acoustic waves to create lab-grown human tissue

Researchers often test experimental pharmaceutical therapies using lab-grown human tissues. Unfortunately, creating these materials can be complex and costly, leading many researchers to turn to alternative approaches such as 3D bioprinting—itself a slow, painstaking process. Now, however, a new printing system is showing promise for dramatically shortening the time needed to create lab-grade tissue samples. […]
