Artificial ‘mini-lungs’ grown in a lab let scientists watch how the coronavirus infects human cells

Tiny artificial lungs grown in a lab from adult stem cells have allowed scientists to watch how coronavirus infects the lungs in a new ‘major breakthrough’.  Researchers from Duke University and Cambridge University produced artificial lungs in two independent and separate studies to examine the spread of Covid-19.  The ‘living lung’ models minimic the tiny … Read more
