Bio‐Inspired Stored Magnetic Energy Actuator with Transient Triggering and Programmable Logic

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A bio‐inspired magnetic energy actuator achieves 1.6 m/s transient release—three orders faster than conventional systems—via direct ink writing printed NdFeB/Polydimethylsiloxane composites and environmental locks; biomimetic AND‐gate logic enables sequential cue recognition (e.g., “temperature → rainfall”).

Increasing thermal stress for tropical coral reefs: 1871–2017

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Tropical corals live close to their upper thermal limit making them vulnerable to unusually warm summer sea temperatures. The resulting thermal stress can lead to breakdown of the coral-algal symbiosis, essential for the functioning of reefs, and cause ...

SPARC: A Soft, Proprioceptive, Agile Robot for 3D Climbing and Exploration with Precise Trajectory Following

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SPARC is a soft, proprioceptive, agile robot for 3D climbing, and exploration, integrating three parallel‐configured 3D‐printed Kresling origami actuators with embedded proprioception, a dual closed‐loop feedback control system, and pneumatic suction feet, enabling precise trajectory following in 3D, smooth transitioning from the ground to the wall ...

Risk‐sensitive planning for conserving coral reefs under rapid climate change

open access: yesConservation Letters, 2018
Coral reef ecosystems are seriously threatened by changing conditions in the ocean. Although many factors are implicated, climate change has emerged as a dominant and rapidly growing threat.

The Coral of Plants

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2020
The present article has two primary objectives. First, the article provides a historical overview of graphical tools used in the past centuries for summarizing the classification and phylogeny of plants. It is emphasized that each published diagram focuses on only a single or a few aspects of the present and past of plant life on Earth.

SERS‐AI‐LUA‐Driven Salivary Diagnosis of Head and Neck Cancer Using Graphene‐Assisted Plasmonic Nanocorals

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The developed graphene‐assisted plasmonic nanocoral platform enables sensitive, label‐free surface‐enhanced Raman scattering analysis of salivary metabolites for head and neck cancer (HNC) detection. When combined with machine learning classification and nonnegative least squares‐based spectral deconvolution, this approach achieves 98% diagnostic ...

The Future of Coral Reefs Subject to Rapid Climate Change: Lessons from Natural Extreme Environments

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Global climate change and localised anthropogenic stressors are driving rapid declines in coral reef health. In vitro experiments have been fundamental in providing insight into how reef organisms will potentially respond to future climates.

Solution‐Shearing of Highly Smooth Ion‐Gel Thin Films: Facilitating the Deposition of Organic Semiconductors for Ion‐Gated Organic Field Effect Transistors

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, Volume 11, Issue 6, May 2025.
A straightforward method is introduced to produce ion‐gel films with very low surface roughness by employing a solution‐shearing coating process. These ion‐gel films permit the growth of crystalline thin films of various small molecule organic semiconductor molecules directly on top of the ion‐gel layer, thereby enabling “inverted” small molecule ...

Feeding increases the number of offspring but decreases parental investment of Red Sea coral Stylophora pistillata

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Successful reproductive output and recruitment is crucial to coral persistence and recovery following anthropogenic stress. Feeding is known to alter coral physiology and increase resilience to bleaching.
