Nature, 1884 ON seeing my article on this rare British Holothurian, Mrs. Fisher—who, as Miss Arabella B. Buckley, is well known to a large circle of readers—kindly sent me an account of her experience of the offensive use of the Cuvierian organs. She tells me that in the Bay of Rapallo at Santa Margherita, near Porto Fino, she dredged a large black Holothurian, and

Artificially Weaved Textile‐like Surface Micromachined Graphene‐Polymer Flexible Bioelectrodes
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This study reports on the engineering of microscale textured surfaces of SU‐8/PMMA polymer composites much like a “weft‐warp” pattern to resemble “artificially‐weaved” textiles. These microstructured surfaces enable conformal layering of functional reduced graphene oxide (rGO), all‐in‐all offering favorable features including remarkable self ...
