I’ve always been bookish. I spend most of my time in the lab rather than running, jumping or climbing. But I still have super strong muscles. They’re way bigger than when I was a young. I asked my ...

In a tiny laboratory pond, a robotic stingray flaps its fins and swims around. Roughly the width of a dime, the bot dashes distances multiple times its body size. It easily navigates around corners ...

The same dirt that clings to astronauts' boots may one day keep their lights on. In a study published in Device, researchers created solar cells made out of simulated moon dust. The cells convert ...

For the first time, researchers at the University of British Columbia have demonstrated how to reliably produce an important ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

(CNN) — Scientists have created tiny living robots from human cells that can move around in a lab dish and may one day be able to help heal wounds or damaged tissue, according to a new study. A team ...

Researchers created lab-made heart cells for "Body on a Chip" project. — -- Science fiction became reality after researchers from Wake Forrest University say they managed to turn stem cells into ...

Mitochondria are very well known as the powerhouses of the cell. Generally speaking, all eukaryotes, including plants, fungi, and animals, are made of cells that contain mitochondria. These organelles ...

Researchers have used human tracheal cells to create tiny biological robots that can move on their own and work together to encourage healing in damaged neurons without requiring genetic modifications ...
