Drawing inspiration from human gait, researchers from Japan crafted a two-legged biohybrid robot by combining muscle tissues and artificial materials. This method allows the robot to walk and pivot.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology The team came up with a surprisingly straightforward idea while brainstorming methods ...

The researchers then implanted 3D-printed muscle constructs into mice. After six weeks, the mice that received the constructs with sustained-release IGF-1 showed the most muscle tissue ...

They've developed a novel approach to healing muscle injury by employing 'injectable tissue prosthesis' in the form of conductive hydrogels and combining it with a robot-assisted rehabilitation ...

Researchers at the school are using live muscle tissue in tandem with synthetic robot parts for a classification of robots known as “biohybrid.” MIT Professor of Engineering Ritu Raman ...

They've created a biohybrid hand, a fusion of lab-grown muscle tissue and mechanical engineering, capable of gripping and making gestures. This innovation paves the way for a new generation of ...

For instance, extensive research shows that muscle and joint stiffness varies by sex; in general, women have less stiff connective tissue, which leads to looser, laxer joints. Perhaps as a result ...
