Integration of Soft‐Robotics and Deep Learning to Assess the Coordinated Biosonar Emission and Reception Dynamics in Hipposiderid Bats

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, Volume 2, Issue 1, February 2026.
Combining a biomimetic soft‐robot with deep‐learning data analytics sheds light on a unique peripheral dynamics seen in the biosonar system of bats: Bats modulate their ultrasonic biosonar signals upon emission as well as reception with variable, yet highly coordinated motion patterns of their noseleaves and pinnae.

Impact of Biomimetic Pinna Shape Variation on Clutter Echoes: A Machine Learning Approach

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Bats with dynamic ear structures navigate dense, echo‐rich environments, yet the echoes they receive are highly random. This study shows that machine learning can reliably detect structural signatures in these seemingly chaotic biosonar signals. The results open new directions for biologically inspired sensing, where time‐varying receiver shapes ...

Effect of Testosterone Therapy on Cytochrome P450 3A and P‐Glycoprotein Activities Using Midazolam and Digoxin as Probe Substrates Among Transgender Adults

open access: yesPharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, Volume 46, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Gender‐affirming testosterone therapy is one part of the standard of care for more than 1 million transgender adults in the United States. Testosterone therapy may influence the activities of drug‐metabolizing enzymes and transporters, but knowledge about its effect on the pharmacokinetics of other medications is limited.
