Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A novel soft robotic propeller overcomes traditional efficiency‐flexibility tradeoffs via a hybrid pneumatic‐cable actuation strategy. This architecture enables active stiffness modulation with dual‐mode locomotion: tunable biomimetic swimming and earthworm‐inspired wriggling for confined spaces.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...

The effects of earthworm concentration and extraction time on solubility of protein
Advances in Food Science, Sustainable Agriculture, and Agroindustrial Engineering, 2018 Earthworm (Lumbricus rubellus) is known to contain proteins making it suitable for alternative high-protein resources for feed or animal food. Exctraction of proteins from earthworms is not an easy task and it requires multiple steps for purifying the ...

Ecography, EarlyView.Despite the growing number of studies on trophic networks in recent decades, there are still important gaps in our understanding of how these networks are structured across broad environmental gradients. These gaps are even greater in some groups of terrestrial vertebrates, such as snakes, requiring a cohesive synthesis of their broader trophic ...
