In a significant stride forward in the field of bio-inspired robotics, researchers have engineered artificial muscles powered by artificial intelligence (AI). These muscles, made from materials that ...

The heart is the body's hardest-working muscle. Whether you're awake or asleep, or exercising or resting, your heart is always at work. It pumps blood through arteries to deliver oxygen to organs and ...

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, ...

You may not be able to grow bigger muscles out of thin air, but you can 3D print them in microgravity, scientists at ETH Zurich have now established. "3D printing" refers to a type of manufacturing ...

In almost every species, ear movement can be a clue that the animal is trying to pay close attention to something. When people are trying hard to listen to something, the body seems to do its best to ...

From the diaphragm to the pelvic floor, scientists say improving your core strength can protect your spine and help you move with ease into older age. Exercises like the plank train the body’s full ...
