Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new class of protein-based fibers modeled on the aligned ...

University of Delaware’s Mona Batish is a molecular biologist. She studies circular RNAs formed as a result of so-called molecular mistakes that occur when a strand of RNA — the ribonucleic acid that ...

Human health is the Achilles heel of space travel. Researchers at ETH Zurich have now succeeded in printing complex muscle tissue in zero gravity. This will enable drugs for space missions to be ...

Objectives To explore the injury-inciting situational characteristics of indirect and non-contact muscle injuries in sports, commonly referred to as muscle strains; and to investigate differences and ...

Evaluating peptides for muscle growth requires examining multiple factors: product quality, scientific evidence, safety considerations, and realistic cost-benefit ratios. Quality varies dramatically ...

Consider the delicate web of fat in a Wagyu steak. The "marbling" that makes carnivore connoisseurs swoon is a visual heuristic for quality flavor. Now, a new study in Cell Reports suggests the very ...

Combining lab-grown muscle tissue with a series of flexible mechanical joints has led to the development of an artificial hand that can grip and make gestures. The breakthrough shows the way forward ...

Challenging the belief that animal protein is the superior type for building muscle, scientists have shown that there is actually no difference in eating meat and dairy or plant sources following a ...
