The human body moves through a coordinated effort of skeletal muscles, working in concert to generate force. While some ...

MIT engineers developed a method to grow artificial muscle tissue that twitches and flexes in multiple, coordinated ...

MIT engineers have made a breakthrough in this area—they’ve developed a method to grow muscle tissue that contracts in ...

The flexibility of biohybrid robots could allow them to squeeze and twist through areas that are too small or complex.

Now, MIT engineers have taken a major step toward developing robots that replace rigid gears with something much softer – ...

If this light-activated stuff works, it could make building robots easier - or make lazing about under the Sun quite a ...

Now MIT engineers have developed a method to grow artificial muscle tissue that twitches and flexes in multiple coordinated directions. As a demonstration, they grew an artificial, muscle-powered ...

Her research on musculoskeletal artificial tissue that adapts to the micro-environment involves both undergraduate and graduate students and focuses on "patient-specific" solutions. Lindberg ...
