Experimental medication could treat osteoarthritis by acting like ice

Ice in and of itself isn’t slippery – it becomes slippery when friction causes a thin layer of liquid water to form on top of it. Scientists have now applied that same basic principle to an injectable medication that could be used to treat osteoarthrit… Continue reading Experimental medication could treat osteoarthritis by acting like ice

Soft robotic grasper channels the spirit of the Venus flytrap

Although soft robotic graspers may be squishy on the outside, they usually still have hard, unyielding electronic components on the inside. A new and potentially more versatile bio-inspired grasping system, however, is 100 percent soft.Continue Reading… Continue reading Soft robotic grasper channels the spirit of the Venus flytrap
