FlexMat, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 452-501, September 2026.Abstract Soft robots, engineered from highly compliant materials, offer superior adaptability and safety in unstructured environments compared to their rigid counterparts. Recent advancements, fueled by bio‐inspiration and material programmability, have led to the rapid co‐evolution of their core modules: actuation, sensing, protection, energy, and ...

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 8, August 2026.This work introduces a starfish‐inspired magnetic soft robot for localized, long‐term inflammatory bowel disease therapy. Featuring biomimetic multi‐arm microspines and magnetic actuation, it navigates the gastrointestinal tract, adheres firmly, and releases drugs on demand, monitored by ultrasound, with validated biosafety and ex vivo therapeutic ...

Non-equilibrium play in centipede games [PDF]
, 2020 Centipede games represent a classic example of a strategic situation, where the equilibrium prediction is at odds with human behavior. This study is explicitly designed to discriminate among the proposed explanations for initial responses in centipede ...

The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations
Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 1256-1284, August 2026.This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...

The molecularization of centipede systematics [PDF]
, 2019 The injection of molecular data over the past 20 years has impacted on all facets of centipede systematics. Multi-locus and transcriptomic datasets are the source of a novel hypothesis for how the five living orders of centipedes interrelate but force ...
