Rethinking Extracellular Vesicle Signaling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles enable cell communication beyond intracellular cargo delivery. This perspective highlights two plausible surface‐based signaling modes: “bind‐and‐stay” and “bind‐and‐leave.” Transient binding to multiple cells challenges the one‐vesicle‐one‐cell model.

A Female‐Locust‐Inspired Hybrid Soft‐Stiff Robotic Digger: Mimetics and Implications for Digging Efficiency

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Female desert locusts dig underground to lay their eggs. They displace soil, rather than removing it, to create a tunnel. We analyze burrowing dynamics and 3D kinematics and design a locust‐inspired hybrid soft–stiff robot that reproduces this mechanism. The results show the natural strategy minimizes energy, whereas alternative patterns raise costs up
