"People know there is a lot of fluid between cells in tissues, but how important that is, in particular in tissue deformation, is completely ignored," says Ming Guo, associate professor of mechanical ...

The more we discover about the natural world, the more we find that nature is the greatest engineer. Past research implied that liquids can only be transported in fixed direction on species with ...

Fluid dynamics underpins a broad range of industrial and environmental processes, with orifice flow measurement representing a critical application area that bridges theory and practice. Recent ...

Water makes up around 60% of the human body. More than half of this water is inside the cells that make up organs and tissues, and much of the remaining water flows in the spaces between cells. MIT ...

A new study led by investigators from Mass General Brigham shows that a brain waste- "clean-up" system is influenced by ...

Interstitial fluid flow is closely related to drug delivery and distribution, playing a crucial role in their therapeutic effects on tumors. However, few non-invasive measurement methods are available ...
