Growing organs in the Lab — Find out how scientists are making human organs in the lab from stem cells. While we can’t grow fully functional human organs yet, they can grow organoids from stem cells to study organ development and 3D bioprint tissues that can one day be used to repair organs.

This episode is all about brain organoids. Cerebral organoids or brain organoids were developed in 2013 by Madeline Lancaster and Jürgen Knoblich. Brain organoids are also called mini-brains and they are a powerful tool to grow brain-like structures in petri dishes. Brain organoids enable studies on the development of brains, brain diseases or brain infections. In this video, we will talk how we can make brain organoids and how we use brain organoids.

Okay, so what are brain organoids? Brain organoids or cerebral organoids are laboratory-grown structures which mimic parts of the brain. Brain organoids establish regions with multiple layers of neurons comparable to the developing brain. However, cells within brain organoids are less specific compared to cells we find in the brain. We also do not find any specific \.

UT Dallas researchers have identified the cause of LiNiO₂ battery degradation and developed a structural reinforcement method that could enable its commercial use in longer-lasting lithium-ion batteries.

Lithium nickel oxide (LiNiO₂) is a promising material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries with longer lifespans. However, its commercialization has been hindered by degradation after repeated charging cycles.

Researchers at the University of Texas at Dallas have identified the cause of this breakdown and are testing a solution that could overcome a major obstacle to its widespread use. Their findings were recently published din the journal Advanced Energy Materials.

“Acquisitions and programs are moving forward,” an SDA spokesperson said in a statement to SpaceNews, adding that the agency is preparing to release a fresh solicitation for the 10 satellites in the near future.

Tranche 3 Tracking Layer proposals

In parallel with efforts to correct procurement missteps, SDA is advancing the first major satellite acquisition since Tournear’s removal: a 54-satellite procurement for the Tranche 3 Tracking Layer of the Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA). This next-generation missile tracking constellation builds on the foundation of earlier tranches, expanding coverage and improving real-time threat detection capabilities.
