Dead Matter, Living Machines: Repurposing Crustaceans' Abdomen Exoskeleton for Bio‐Hybrid Robots
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Crustacean exoskeletons, repurposed from food waste, are engineered into sustainable bending actuators combining biotic structure with synthetic control. The augmented exoskeletons achieve rapid and robust motion with lightweight body and can be used as part of robotic manipulators, grippers and swimmers.

The organism: reality or fiction? [PDF]
, 2014 What is an ‘organism’? A state of matter, or a particular type of living being chosen as an experimental object, like the fruit fly or the roundworm c. elegans, which are ‘model organisms’?

Artificial Intelligence‐Driven Soft Bioelectronics for Self‐Powered Respiration Monitoring
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Artificial intelligence‐driven soft bioelectronics for self powered respiration monitoring based on triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs), and magnetoelastic generators (MEGs) enable continuous and multi‐scenario respiratory biomechanical data collection. Coupled with machine learning and big data driven diagnostics,

Closure of a Recurrent Urethrovaginal Fistula in a Girl with Cloacal Anomaly Using Deflux Injection
European Journal of Pediatric Surgery Reports, 2018 In a girl born with cloaca, both hemivaginae and rectum were located above the bladder neck, and both ureters were connected to the hemivaginae. After diverting colostomy and cystovaginoscopy on the second day of life, the repair of cloaca was performed ...

Research Error. How I Came to be Where I am. [PDF]
, 2005 The text below reproduces, more or less, a talk I gave during the college’s Research Week in Spring 2003. Although the talk was scripted for the most part, there were a few improvised ‘passages’ – the major one occasioned by a latecomer’s tussle with the

Development of the human prepuce and its innervation. [PDF]
, 2020 Development of the human prepuce was studied over the course of 9-17 weeks of gestation in 30 specimens. Scanning electron microscopy revealed subtle surface features that were associated with preputial development, namely the appearance of epidermal ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study combines the biological structure of octopuses with the “3D structure” of spacer fabrics to fabricate a dual‐interface solar evaporator with adaptive hydrothermal balance. Water adaptation is achieved through the differentiated design of the upper and lower layers, and dynamic hydrothermal balance is realized by dynamically regulating the ...

Dual‐Responsive Yarn‐Based Artificial Muscles for Adaptive Thermal Management
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Inspired by the conscious movements of skeletal muscle, a novel hybrid yarn‐based artificial muscle (HYAM) coupling moisture actuation with controllable recovery is developed. This unique design increases actuation stroke by 128% and shortens recovery time by 91%. This unique design enhances the actuation stroke by 128% and reduces the recovery time by
