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 ...

The film explores the muscular system of the human body, detailing the roles and functions of the three types of muscles: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Skeletal muscles, which are voluntary and work ...

The complex combination of movements required for this simple scissor gesture is a big step up from the capabilities of previous biohybrid robots. A biohybrid hand which can move objects and do a ...

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, ...

Researchers are using the human body as inspiration in the next generation of robots. It's like anatomy, but electronic. Electro-hydraulic muscles are more energy efficient than motor driven robots.
