Origami‐Inspired Structural Design for Aquatic‐Terrestrial Amphibious Robots
This work presents a lightweight amphibious origami robot actuated by a single shape memory alloy wire. A rigid foldable origami structure with displacement amplification enables efficient terrestrial crawling and aquatic swimming. The addition of fan‐shaped units allows controllable turning in both environments.

Bistable Networks Enable Complex Shape Changes
Transition‐controlled metamaterials are networks of bistable mechanical memory that store local binary states and express them as global shape change. By decoupling low‐force programming from high‐force holding, a single lattice is reconfigured into distinct 2D profiles and 3D surfaces without continuous actuation, enabling reusable morphing materials ...

Neuromorphic Devices and Computing for Sensing, Memory, and Control
This review introduces neuromorphic devices made from diverse materials. These devices mimic neuronal functions and architectures and, when integrated with artificial or biological computing, can form closed loops with neurons for pressure, optical, acoustic, and biochemical sensing and modulation.

A rhesus macaque model of α‐dystroglycanopathy caused by a POMT1 splice altering variant
Rhesus macaques homozygous for a naturally occurring spice altering variant in the POMT1 gene develop lissencephaly, microphthalmia, and muscular contracture. The presentation models severe presentation of the human Walker‐Warburg syndrome. Abstract Background Biallelic mutations in genes associated with α‐dystroglycan glycosylation manifest in a ...
