Artificial muscles.
Universidad Carlos III de Madrid researchers offer guidance on the design of magneto-active structural systems that can be applied to stimulate wound healing and artificially replicate muscle tissues. They describe their method as creating an ‘athletic track for cells’.
Two articles on their work have been published recently in Composites Part B: Engineering and International Journal of Solids and Structures: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compositesb.2021.108796 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijsolstr.2020.10.028
