In the dynamic landscape of intelligent technology, electrically powered artificial muscle fibers (EAMFs) are emerging as a revolutionary power source for advanced robotics and wearable devices.

Hypertrophy, the scientific term for the enlargement of muscle fibers, may not hold the top spot on the list of training priorities for some runners. Many of us (sometimes begrudgingly) cross ...

Muscle fibers are divided into three types: slow twitch (type I) or red fibers due to the large number of mitochondria they possess, fast twitch (type IIb) or white fibers and intermediate (type IIa).

Myoclonic epilepsy with ragged red fibers (MERRF) ... Nerve and muscle biopsy. When a doctor takes a biopsy, they remove tissue or a sample of a certain area for examination and testing.

Engineers developed a method to grow artificial muscle tissue that twitches and flexes in multiple, coordinated directions. These tissues could be useful for building 'biohybrid' robots ...
