Our muscles are nature's actuators. The sinewy tissue is what generates the forces that make our bodies move. In recent years, engineers have used real muscle tissue to actuate "biohybrid robots" made ...
The boundary between living tissue and machine is blurring in MIT laboratories. Engineers there have developed a bio-inspired interface that allows lab-grown muscles to actuate robotic structures.

'We’ve always known exercise makes muscles stronger, but our understanding of how exercise affects our tendons is far more recent and still incomplete,' says physio Mark Buckingham. Tendons connect ...
A gluteus tear occurs when one of the tendons that holds your gluteal muscles and bones together partially or completely tears. Your gluteal muscles start at your buttocks and wrap around to the side ...
Researchers created tough hydrogel artificial tendons, attached them to lab-grown muscle to form a muscle-tendon unit, then linked the tendons to a robotic gripper's fingers. (Nanowerk News) Our ...
