It has been a long endeavor to create biohybrid robots – machines powered by lab-grown muscle as potential actuators. The flexibility of biohybrid robots could allow them to squeeze and twist through ...

Weight loss is often framed as a simple equation of eating less and moving more, but that explanation misses one of the most ...

MIT engineers have pushed biohybrid robotics into a new era with lab-grown muscles that don’t just twitch robotic parts but amplify them with serious power. In a breakthrough that reimagines how ...

In context: Making robots more biologically compatible has been a challenge scientists have been tackling for years. Until now, they have primarily been able to create lab-grown muscle fibers that ...

A research team at Tohoku University, in collaboration with Denka Company Limited and U-A Corporation, has developed a ...

A biohybrid hand which can move objects and do a scissor gesture has been created. The researchers used thin strings of lab-grown muscle tissue bundled into sushilike rolls to give the fingers enough ...

A biohybrid hand which can move objects and do a scissor gesture has been built by a team at the University of Tokyo and Waseda University in Japan. The researchers used thin strings of lab-grown ...

In a significant leap toward sustainable food innovation, scientists at the University of Tokyo have created the most realistic lab-grown chicken to date, complete with muscle texture and structure ...

A new discovery may explain why so many people abandon cholesterol-lowering statins because of muscle pain and weakness.

The misconception that muscle can be lean or bulky lies in its appearance. “When people (say ‘lean’), they’re usually ...

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 ...
