Researchers in Japan have taken a major step forward in biohybrid robotics by developing a hand powered by lab-grown muscle tissue. A collaborative effort between the University of Tokyo and Waseda ...

Researchers at Duke University have grown the first ever human muscle in a lab that contracts just like naturally grown tissue. Michelle Starr is CNET's science editor, and she hopes to get you as ...

Biomedical engineers have grown muscles in a lab to better understand and test treatments for a group of extremely rare muscle disorders called dysferlinopathy or limb girdle muscular dystrophies 2B ...

As I’m typing these words, I don’t think about the synchronized muscle contractions that allow my fingers to dance across the keyboard. Or the back muscles that unconsciously tighten to hold myself ...

In the laboratory, the team reared satellite cells taken from rodent muscles. These stem cells help fix injuries in muscle tissue, but implanting satellite cells by themselves doesn’t seem to help ...

A team of researchers from Duke University have grown human skeletal muscles in the laboratory -- muscles that actually function and react to stimuli like their real counterparts. In order to do so, ...

Biomedical engineers have developed lab-grown skeletal muscles that can flex as strongly as the natural-born items, work the way they're supposed to when they're implanted in mice — and even heal ...

ETH Zurich Professor Ori Bar- Nur and his team grow muscle cells in the laboratory. In this case, they are mouse cells, but the researchers are also interested in human and cow cells. Promising ...

Lab-grown muscle isn’t new. In 2013, a group of researchers created enough muscle to make a burger that they could eat. But until recently, researchers weren’t able to grow muscle that could contract ...

Muscle Lab, a muscle recovery and wellness lounge popular with professional athletes and celebrities, has announced the grand opening of its second location on Ventura Blvd. in Studio City. The ...

Exercise can 'almost completely' prevent chronic inflammation that causes muscle to waste away, a study in lab-grown human tissue has revealed. Inflammation occurs when our body's immune system ...
