Animal muscle power sparks new biomaterials for farming, fashion & future medicine
Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new class of protein-based fibers modeled on the aligned ...
The flow of water within a muscle fiber may dictate how quickly muscle can contract, according to a new study. The flow of water within a muscle fiber may dictate how quickly muscle can contract, ...
Researchers have created protein fibers inspired by various animal muscle proteins. These materials are grown in bioreactors and can be stronger than many synthetic fibers.
Engineers have found a simple and inexpensive new approach to creating bending artificial muscle fibers. Artificial muscles -- materials that contract and expand somewhat like muscle fibers do -- can ...
In a new study published this week in <i>Nature Biotechnology</i>, investigators from Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) report that by identifying and mimicking important developmental cues, they ...
