Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed artificial muscles that contain microbubbles and can be controlled with ultrasound.

Skeletal muscle is the type of muscle that controls movement. Problems with these muscles can be minor, life-threatening, or ongoing problems that make it hard to perform basic daily activities.

Researchers in the United States recently worked on AI-powered muscles, made from lifelike materials, paired with intelligent ...

Human movement is reciprocal in nature: Opposing muscle groups must coordinate for proper movement. Muscle length and strength between opposing muscle groups need to be in balance for normal movement ...

The participant attended up to three sessions weekly for 15 months after implantation to use the neural bypass system (NBS). In each session, he was trained to utilize his motor cortical neuronal ...

Evolution has left humans with many vestigial traits—remnants of once-useful biological features that serve little or no ...

Cranial nerves are pairs of nerves that connect your brain to different parts of your head, neck, and trunk. Each nerve has a corresponding roman numeral between i and xii. Your cranial nerves are ...

Pouring a bucket of ice water over one’s head may seem like a distant summer memory. But although the “ice bucket challenge” craze has died down, public awareness of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS ...
