Insects exhibit remarkable locomotor versatility underpinned by highly efficient neural control systems. Their ability to navigate complex terrains relies on the seamless integration of sensory inputs ...
Researchers at Karolinska Institutet, Sweden have uncovered the molecular logic underpinning the assembly of spinal circuits that control the speed of locomotion in adult zebrafish. The study has ...
Elongated fish like eels and lampreys are remarkable movers. Eels demonstrate exceptional locomotor ability, not only when swimming but also crawling on uneven ground. They can even swim after the ...
Fruit flies walking on minature treadmills are helping scientists learn how the nervous system enables animals to move in an unpredictable and complex world. The researchers engineered these ...
University of Copenhagen - The Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences Immune cells have a surprising and critical role in controlling movement and bridging neural activity with metabolic demands, ...
The worm robot mimics the movements of real world worms The walking patterns of crabs, lobsters and spiders are helping to inspire new ways of getting robots to move around. Closer study of the neural ...
The simple act of walking backwards, though rarely practiced in daily life, might offer unexpectedly powerful benefits for brain health. This unconventional movement pattern challenges the brain in ...
