Sound‐Based Assembly of Magnetically Actuated Soft Robots Toward Enhanced Release of Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
Magnetic soft robots offer promise in biomedicine due to their wireless actuation and rapid response, but current fabrication methods are complex and have limited cellular compatibility. A new, contactless bioassembly strategy using hydrodynamic instabilities is introduced, enabling customizable, centimeter‐scale robots.

Proactive Robotic Grasp Stability via Tactile Safety Margin Feedback

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
We introduce the tactile safety margin (TSM), defined as the ratio between applied friction force (Ffric) and maximum friction (Fmax) derived from grip force. A bilayer E‐skin with decoupled temperature, strain, and pressure sensing enables real‐time grasp stability monitoring through measured TSM values, allowing robots to proactively adjust grip ...

MusicSwarm: Biologically Inspired Intelligence for Music Composition

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Biologically inspired swarms of frozen foundation models self‐organize to compose complex music without fine‐tuning. By coordinating through stigmergic signals, decentralized agents dynamically evolve specialized roles and adapt to solve complex tasks.

Material‐Based Intelligence: Autonomous Adaptation and Embodied Computation in Physical Substrates

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This perspective formulates a unifying framework for Material‐Based Intelligence (MBI), defining the physical requirements for materials to achieve embodied action, active memory and embodied information processing through intrinsic nonequilibrium dynamics. The design of intelligent materials often draws parallels with the complex adaptive behaviors of

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

Flower color variation in Digitalis purpurea: Pollination and soil influences across native and introduced populations

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Flower color, a key trait influencing plant–pollinator interactions, may be influenced by abiotic factors such as soil. We investigated association between pollinators, soil characteristics, and flower color variations in Digitalis purpurea across native populations in Sweden and introduced populations in Bolivia.
