Repeated exercise, or wasting, can change the way key genes work.

How muscle changes with ageing, and tries to fight its effects, is now better understood at the cellular and molecular level with the first comprehensive atlas of ageing muscles in humans. Researchers ...

Biological muscles act as flexible actuators, generating force naturally and with an impressive range of motion. Unsurprisingly, scientists and engineers have been striving to build artificial muscles ...

In a significant stride forward in the field of bio-inspired robotics, researchers have engineered artificial muscles powered by artificial intelligence (AI). These muscles, made from materials that ...
