Abstract
The impact of tissue engineering has extended beyond a traditional focus in medicine to the rapidly growing realm of biohybrid robotics. Leveraging living actuators as functional components in machines has been a central focus of this field, generating a range of compelling demonstrations of robots capable of muscle-powered swimming, walking, pumping, gripping, and even computation. In this review, we highlight key advances in fabricating tissue-scale cardiac and skeletal muscle actuators for a range of functional applications. We discuss areas for future growth including scalable manufacturing, integrated feedback control, and predictive modeling and also propose methods for ensuring inclusive and bioethics-focused pedagogy in this emerging discipline. We hope this review motivates the next generation of biomedical engineers to advance rational design and practical use of living machines for applications ranging from telesurgery to manufacturing to on- and off-world exploration.
期刊介绍：
Since 1999, the Annual Review of Biomedical Engineering has been capturing major advancements in the expansive realm of biomedical engineering. Encompassing biomechanics, biomaterials, computational genomics and proteomics, tissue engineering, biomonitoring, healthcare engineering, drug delivery, bioelectrical engineering, biochemical engineering, and biomedical imaging, the journal remains a vital resource. The current volume has transitioned from gated to open access through Annual Reviews' Subscribe to Open program, with all articles published under a CC BY license.
