MIT researchers have developed a computational model that can help improve the injectability of drug-delivery microparticles and prevent clogging. Using this model, the researchers were able to achieve a sixfold increase in the percentage of microparticles they could successfully inject. Credit: Felice Franke...

Cephalopods’ exceptional ability to hide into any background has inspired researchers to replicate their fascinating ability to camouflage in the infrared (IR) and visible spectrum. Recent advances offered a number of physical mechanisms to reproduce the cloaking functionalities of cephalopods. However, most ...

New model provides clues into how whisker bending translates to sensory touch signals.
We know your cat’s whiskers are handsome — but you can’t even see the cool part.
The base of the whisker, which is responsible for sending touch sign...
