The Hybrid Heart, a soft robotic total artificial heart, offers a breakthrough in treating end-stage heart failure with improved biocompatibility and function.

Heart valves can malfunction on one of two ways: They can fail to close completely, allowing blood to flow backward, or they can become damaged, limiting blood flow.

Inspired by the complex architecture of real human blood vessels, which bend, branch, constrict, and expand in ways that dramatically affect blood flow, the team set out to improve laboratory ...
