A tiny region in a little-known muscle protein may hold the key to a healthy, steady heartbeat, as well as possible clues to ...

While multi-material 3D printers do already exist, the filament that they extrude is typically all one material at any one point in the printing process. A new system produces actual multi-material ...

Engineers at Harvard have developed a 3D printing technique that produces soft robotic structures capable of twisting and bending in predictable patterns when inflated with air. The method, which ...

Actin filaments are protein fibers that make up the internal skeleton of the cell. As active elements of our cells, actin filaments support the cell's fusion, movement and are involved in many other ...
