Humans have weaker ear muscles than chimps—yet some humans are still able to twitch them
Most people never think twice about their ears, until they catch a strange little twitch they can't explain. It might happen after a sudden noise or while trying to focus on a distant sound. These ...
PALO ALTO, Calif. (KGO) -- Researchers at Stanford have invented a new way to look at muscles in the human body and they're hoping that it could help lead to break throughs in some of the most ...
The complex combination of movements required for this simple scissor gesture is a big step up from the capabilities of previous biohybrid robots. A biohybrid hand which can move objects and do a ...

There's a muscle in your body that scientists say serves no purpose, but every human still has it
Run a finger down the center of the forearm, curl the fingers, and flex the wrist. For many people, a thin cord jumps into ...
Knowing the precise mechanisms by which MYC drives muscle growth could prove instrumental in creating therapies that reduce muscle loss from aging, potentially improving independence, mobility and ...
Most robots rely on rigid, bulky parts that limit their adaptability, strength, and safety in real-world environments. Researchers developed soft, battery-powered artificial muscles inspired by human ...
Ancient human relatives ran on two legs, like modern humans, but at a much slower pace, suggest 3D computer simulations of Australopithecus afarensis – a small hominin that lived more than three ...
