Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new class of protein-based fibers modeled on the aligned ...

The human body moves through a coordinated effort of skeletal muscles, working in concert to generate force. While some ...

WACO, Texas (KXXV) — Waco ISD-funded Camp Invention has kids creating new inventions while learning STEM: science, technology, engineering, and math. It’s a way for kids to explore their creative side ...

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.

Coordinating dozens of muscles typically requires complex neural control, and it is unclear how much of that coordination must come from the brain versus the body’s structure. Professor Mitra Hartmann ...

Skeletal muscle tissue engineering therapies offer a means to treat a variety of different muscle related diseases and trauma, including volumetric muscle loss, muscle dystrophy, critical limb ...
