  2. πŸ’πŸ»β€β™€οΈ ICYMI: πŸ§πŸ€– Engineers at #MIT and #EPFL built a flapping-wing #robot that swims #underwater and flies into the air.

    Inspired by diving #birds like #puffins, the small #vehicle folds its #wings to handle water density. This #technology could help scientists collect environmental samples from both air and #water.

  6. πŸ’πŸ»β€β™€οΈ TIL: 🦎🧠 Scientists at the University of #WΓΌrzburg designed a #Mars #rover wheel that mimics the sandfish #lizard, a #desert #reptile that swims through loose #sand. The team tested their bio inspired #wheels on sand and open terrain showing steady movement and identifying areas for improvement.

  7. Please also like my newest #YouTube #video, showing some #behaviors of the #beetle #Mimela #junii (#Scarabaeidae), which is a #neozoon in #CentralEurope and Germany. It originally is #native to the #Mediterranean region. My video shows #selfcleaning behavior, #locomotion, #flying ssprcts and response to threat (#thanatosis).

  8. 🧠 New #preprint by Komi et al. (2025): Neural #manifolds that orchestrate walking and stopping. Using #Neuropixels recordings from the lumbar spinal cord of freely walking rats, they show that #locomotion arises from rotational #PopulationDynamics within a low-dimensional limit-cycle #manifold. When walking stops, the dynamics collapse into a postural manifold of stable fixed points, each encoding a distinct pose.
