The human body is a wonderous thing, especially when you consider how intricate and efficient each bodily system is. For instance, an adult’s blood vessels could encircle the earth 2.5 times if ...

Scientists in the department of biomedical engineering at Duke University have revealed that exercising human muscles has an intrinsic ability to heal painful inflammation. The study focused on ...

In a significant stride forward in the field of bio-inspired robotics, researchers have engineered artificial muscles powered ...

Much like our brains, human muscles have evolved several times more rapidly than primate muscles, according to a new study — but that process has made us weaker over time in a process, while brains ...

To work toward getting around this issue, researchers used parabolic flights to simulate microgravity conditions, then 3D ...

ETH Zurich 3D printed human muscle in microgravity, advancing space bioprinting and biomedical research beyond Earth.

As promising a technology as artificial muscles have been, most of the time they’re still a bit too artificial, often made of plastics, nylon, rubber, waxy carbon nanotubes and the like. That might ...

A study on the human muscles and yeast titled "Full humanization of the glycolytic pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae" has been published in the journal Cell Reports. Researchers from Delft ...
