This humanoid robot has a mind of its own. Researchers at Tianjin University in China have created a robot that is controlled by human brain cells in a first-of-its-kind breakthrough in ...

A team of researchers from South Korea has developed a paper-thin actuator that could enable advanced robotic surgeries.

Instead of using real human test subjects, experimenters could grow artificial skin layers from real cells. Beyond improving robotic interfaces, the research team believes their technique could ...

Using mathematical analysis of patterns of human and animal cell behavior, scientists say they have developed a computer ...

Scientists merged human brain-like tissue with a computer chip in order to help teach small robotic systems how to navigate obstacles, as well as how to track and grasp items. The steps to make ...

Give me a hand A “biohybrid” robotic hand built using real human muscle cells A real bit of cyborg hardware highlights the technology's current limitations.

A tiny battery designed by MIT engineers could enable the deployment of cell-sized, autonomous robots for drug delivery within in the human body, as well as other applications such as locating leaks ...

Regev compared scientific knowledge of cell biology before the Human Cell Atlas initiative with a “15 th century map.” “Now, years later, the resolution of the map is a lot higher,” she said.

A smiling face made from living human skin could one day be attached to a humanoid robot, allowing machines to emote and communicate in a more life-like way, say researchers.
