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 ...

Kit Parker is used to being an anomaly on Harvard University’s campus. The physicist — an Army Reserve colonel who served in Afghanistan — is a long-time critic of the school’s hiring practices and ...

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.

The stakes for Harvard will be in focus on July 21. Read more at straitstimes.com. Read more at straitstimes.com.

Kit Parker is the Tarr Family Professor of Bioengineering and Applied Physics, head of the Disease Biophysics Group, and a member of the Wyss Institute for Biologically-Inspired Engineering at Harvard ...

Kit Parker has built an artificial jellyfish out of silicone and muscle cells from a rat heart. When it’s immersed in an electric field, it pulses and swims exactly like a real jellyfish. The ...

As a soldier, Kit Parker saw horrific injuries. As a scientist, he led an effort to create high-tech dressings that speed healing and reduce scarring.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
