Scaling up biohybrid robots has been difficult due to the weak contractile force of lab-grown muscles, the risk of necrosis in thick muscle tissues, and the challenge of integrating biological ...

Now, US researchers have discovered that the epithelial cells that line our skin and organs are able to signal the same way ...

Scientists have found a way to study early embryonic development without real embryos. Using CRISPR, they programmed stem cells to self-organize into structures mimicking early embryos. The cells show ...

Engineers developed a method to grow artificial muscle tissue that twitches and flexes in multiple, coordinated directions. These tissues could be useful for building 'biohybrid' robots powered by ...

Now, researchers from Yale have found that a specific bacterium, called Enterococcus gallinarum, can move from the gut to ...

The human body is one of the most complex and fascinating machines ever studied, yet there’s still so much we don’t ...

Earlier this year, lab-grown meat was permitted to be used in dog food in Britain. But considerations around the safety of ...

In Japan, a smelly waste product is being reimagined as a potential clean fuel of the future that is powering cars and ...

amacrine cells and retinal ganglion cells, which transmit the visual information to other parts of the visual system along the optic nerve. The cellular organization of retinal development is ...

A normal visual field is 120 degrees, meaning one can see objects within a 120-degree arc from the center of their focus.

Professor Im Joo Rhyu, director of the Korea University Graduate Program for Convergence & Translational Biomedicine and ...

Northwestern Medicine investigators have uncovered new insights into how intercellular "glue" functions to enable ...
