Soft-bodied robots are unlocking a new era of adaptive machines that can safely interact with the human body, squeeze through tight spaces, and propel themselves autonomously.

It is a massive amount of data that clearly shows the role of the Class III neurons in cold-induced larval body contraction. Patel et al perform the analysis of neurons in a somatosensory network ...

This is often used to sort DNA fragments, but Riedl used it to immerse a Drosophila larva in an electric field. "Everyone who runs a lab has this device," said Riedl, who now works at Imperial ...

Abstract: Studying the neural response of a Drosophila larva to touch stimulation could decipher neural basis of the creature's danger-escaping behaviors. This letter reports force-controlled robotic ...

2-230pm Dr Terrence Trinca(Dr Helen Weaver and Prof Paul Martin lab, University ofBristol) "Using Drosophila to study and screen ... in the timing of sensitive periods duringDrosophila larval neuronal ...

Glycolysis impairment in the fat body of developing Drosophila larvae leads to distant body-wall muscle disorganization. These muscle defects are mediated by the adipose tissue secretion of TNF-α/egr ...

We present a novel collision resolution algorithm enabling an accurate contour segmentation of multiple touching Drosophila larvae. Our algorithm utilizes an adapted active shape model (ASM) to learn ...

Spotted winged drosophila are a vinegar fly of East Asian ... So it goes from egg to larvae to adult in a faster time." Mintenko also said the fruit fly has been seen more in southern than ...

The wasps do not attack or lay eggs in humans. Samba wasps are found to only target spotted-wing drosophila larvae. (Warren Wong/Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada) Just like their hosts ...

This embryo then undergoes three distinct larval stages, eventually maturing into an adult Drosophila. Development of an adult fly only takes 10 days from fertilization. The female fly can produce ...
