Integrative analyses of convergent adaptation in sympatric extremophile fishes

Current Biology, 2021
The evolution of independent lineages along replicated environmental gradients frequently results in convergent adaptation, yet the degree to which convergence is present across multiple levels of biological organization is often unclear.

Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.
