The stakes for Harvard will be in focus on Monday, when a federal judge in Boston will hear arguments on whether the Trump ...

The last time we checked in with engineering professor Kit Parker, his students had finished building a brisket-smoking robot. It's easy to see why they did that: Brisket is tasty, brisket is hard ...

Kit Parker, a Harvard p rofessor of bioengineering and applied physics, made the robo-stingray to learn more about heart disease. Scroll down to see how the stingray swims and what this means for ...

Kevin Kit Parker, a professor of bioengineer and applied physics at Harvard, says the initial idea came during a trip to the aquarium with his daughter.

There’s more to this project than just creating a life-like fish. Parker’s primary interest is in understanding the heart and how various parts of the anatomy can help with blood flow.

Michael Rosnach, Keel Yong Lee, Sung-Jin Park, Kevin Kit Parker Scientists have built a school of robotic fish powered by human heart cells. The fish, which swim on their ...

Michael Rosnach, Keel Yong Lee, Sung-Jin Park, Kevin Kit Parker What’s next — The goal of this research is to eventually build a 3D, working heart model, Lee says.

It was the aquarium that sent Kit Parker down an unexpected path with his heart research. He was there with his daughter watching jellyfish pulsing through the water. The jellyfish, he realized ...

Where science meets war: Kit Parker's lab 05:34. This week on 60 Minutes, Lesley Stahl and producer Andrew Metz reported on how the U.S. military's counterinsurgency tactics are being adapted by ...

Parker's robotic stingray is tiny—a bit more than half an inch long—and weighs only 10 grams. But it glides through liquid with the very same undulating motion used by fish like real stingrays ...

Genetically, this thing is a rat,” says Kit Parker, a biophysicist at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, who led the work. The project is described today in Nature Biotechnology.
