Growing lung organoids in biomaterial scaffold
Respiratory diseases account for nearly 1 in 5 deaths worldwide. To help patients, researchers at the University of Michigan have successfully developed a biomaterial scaffold that helps lung tissues mature and develop into structures.

The scaffold is made up of PLG and shaped like a small cylinder; it provides a stiff structure to support growth of mini lungs after transplantation while allowing the tissue to grow blood vessels. Stem cells are injected into the scaffold and transplanted into mice, then matured for eight weeks.
This research is led by Lonnie Shea, the William and Valerie Hall Department Chair and a professor of Biomedical Engineering at Michigan Engineering.
