Shape Memory Polymer‐Based Hook‐and‐Loop Fastener for Robust Bonding and on‐Demand Easy Separation
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A 3D shape memory polymer‐based hook‐and‐loop fastener, fabricated using projection microstereolithography and molding, offers tunable bonding strength through temperature control. When heated from 25 to 70 °C, the fastener softens and deforms easily, reducing bonding strength by 20‐fold for on‐demand easy separation.

Current Biology, 2019 Many people are familiar with the meandering tunnels of moles, far fewer are familiar with the creatures that made them. Such secrecy is, of course, one of the great benefits of burrowing through the earth where few predators can follow. But it's not the only benefit. Soil contains a smorgasbord of nutritious invertebrate prey - hence all the tunneling.

Current Biology, 2005 What are star-nosed moles? The star-nosed mole, Condylura cristata, is one of about 30 species of mole in the mammalian order Insectivora. Although they are rarely seen, they are relatively common in the wetlands of eastern North America and Canada. They weigh about 30–50 grams and have large clawed forelimbs for digging their extensive underground ...
