Professor Arda Gozen looks to a future when doctors can hit a button to print out a scaffold on their 3D printers and create custom-made replacement skin, cartilage, or other tissue for their patients.
The WSU Tri‑Cities research, which is funded by a $2.5 million Department of Energy grant, has the potential to be scaled globally.
The WSU research could lead to reduced reliance on energy-intensive processes that are used to move and treat wastewater, which accounts for as much as 2% of total U.S. electrical energy consumption.
WSU researchers have used the ancient Japanese art of paper folding to possibly solve a key challenge for outer space travel – how to store and move fuel to rocket engines.
A new study by WSU scientists shows there is a correlation between the levels of bacteria and fungi in the gastrointestinal tract of children and the amount of common chemicals found in their home environment.
The research could ultimately lead to earlier detection of the neurodegenerative brain disease that affects 5.8 million people in the U.S.
The finding could someday lead to improved diagnostics and medical treatments for serious and sometimes devastating hereditary heart conditions.
WSU researchers have determined how to keep iron from rusting in important chemical reactions that are needed to convert plant materials to fuels. Their work could be used for more cost-effective biofuels conversion.
Climate change will leave some farmers with a difficult conundrum, according to a new study by WSU and Cornell University researchers: Either deal with more revenue volatility or live with a more predictable decrease in crop yields.
Antimicrobial‑resistant bacteria cause more than 2.8 million difficult-to-treat pneumonia, bloodstream and other infections annually in the U.S.
