Dr Aaron Holley argues that skeletal muscle — not just heart and lungs — is a key, often missed driver of activity ...

Muscle-on-chip systems are three-dimensional human muscle cell bundles cultured on collagen scaffolds. A Stanford University research team sent some of these systems to the International Space Station ...

Muscle atrophy is a primary characteristic of both sarcopenia and cachexia, significantly impacting physical function and quality of life. This figure illustrates the multifaceted causes of muscle ...

A series of recent physiology studies span from rare disease mechanisms to space-based biomedical advances. Findings include ...

University of California, Irvine researchers have identified a gene expressed during regeneration that is critical for muscle repair. The key human skeletal muscle gene was also found in a subset of ...

To help solve this problem, Generalist has relied on “data hands,” a set of wearable pincers that capture micro-movements and visual information as humans perform manual tasks. Generalist now claims ...

As people age, muscles naturally lose mass and strength, a condition known as sarcopenia. The decline can make everyday activities harder and increases the risk of falls, disability and early death.
