Muscle-on-chip systems are three-dimensional human muscle cell bundles cultured on collagen scaffolds. A Stanford University research team sent some of these systems to the International Space Station ...

Cambridge researchers created miniature brain-and-spinal-cord systems in the lab that can send signals and even trigger tiny ...

While the human brain works to protect itself during physical trauma, certain extreme conditions cause an unbearable level of ...

Researchers have developed an intelligent artificial muscle that mimics biological muscle–tendon systems. The team at Seoul National University (SNU) created the device using liquid-metal channels ...

Biohybrid robots work by combining biological components like muscles, plant material, and even fungi with non-biological materials. While we are pretty good at making the non-biological parts work, ...

You may not be able to grow bigger muscles out of thin air, but you can 3D print them in microgravity, scientists at ETH Zurich have now established. "3D printing" refers to a type of manufacturing ...
