Multimodal Locomotion: Next Generation Aerial–Terrestrial Mobile Robotics
Aerial–terrestrial robots can achieve efficient energy consumption and robust environmental interaction by adding morphological features, adapting forms for locomotion transitions, and integrating multiple platforms. This next generation of mobile robots advances real‐world robotic deployment for operations with complex tasks and tackle environments ...

Insects, Trees, and Climate: The Bioacoustic Ecology of Deforestation and Entomogenic Climate Change [PDF]
Accumulating observational evidence suggests an intimate connection between rapidly expanding insect populations, deforestation, and global climate change. We review the evidence, emphasizing the vulnerability of key planetary carbon pools, especially the Earth's forests that link the micro-ecology of insect infestation to climate.

The sterile insect technique used as a barrier control against reinfestation [PDF]
The sterile insect technique consists in massive release of sterilized males in the aim to reduce the size of mosquitoes population or even eradicate it. In this work, we investigate the feasability of using the sterile insect technique as a barrier against reinvasion.

Flexible 3D Kirigami Probes for In Vitro and In Vivo Neural Applications
A customizable and scalable approach to fabricate flexible 3D kirigami microelectrode arrays (MEAs) featuring up to 128 shanks, including surface and penetrating electrodes designed to interact with the 3D space of neural tissue, is presented. The 3D kirigami MEAs are successfully deployed in several neural applications, both in vitro and in vivo, and ...
