This is no ordinary origami paper, it's made out of organ tissues and could eventually become a high-tech band aid. Northwestern University When Adam Jakus was a postdoc at Northwestern University he ...

A new tissue paper (as in, paper made from biological tissue) is so strong it can be folded into origami. Northwestern University The discovery happened, as so many discoveries do, by accident. Adam ...

Tissue paper discovery resulted from accidental spill in lab Bioactive paper as thin as phyllo dough made from ovary, uterus, heart, liver and muscle material New biomaterials can potentially support ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists and engineers have invented a range of bioactive "tissue papers" made of materials derived from organs that are thin and flexible enough to even fold into an origami ...
