Abstract: Looking to nature for inspiration has led to many diverse technological
advances. The spiral valve intestine of sharks has provided the opportunity
to observe the efficiency of different valve systems. It is supposed that the
spiral intestine present in […]

Abstract: Medical adhesives that are strong, easy to apply and biocompatible are promising alternatives to sutures and staples in a large variety of surgical and clinical procedures. Despite progress in the development and regulatory approval of adhesives for use in the clinic, adhesion […]
Abstract: Tunas of the genus Thunnus are a group of high-performance pelagic fishes with many locomotor traits that are convergently shared with other high-performance fish groups. Because of their swimming abilities, tunas continue to be an inspiration for both comparative biomechanics and the […]
Memory is traditionally associated with complex organisms that have a nervous system. However, simple organisms can store information about previous experiences, such as nutrient sources, for survival purposes. Organisms like the unicellular slime mold Physarum polycephalum utilizes its network of interlaced tubes in varying diameters that shrink and grow in response […]
To learn how to approach human limb regeneration, scientists have begun to study the incredible regenerative powers of the axolotl. Axolotls are capable of regrowing their limbs and even organs. This paper explores the possible insight that could be gained by understanding the genetics behind axolotl limb regeneration.
The Biomimetic Millisystems Lab performs research to improve millirobot capabilities and harness bioinspired principles, as well as aspects of animal manipulation and locomotion of the animals the robots emulate. An example of a recent research project at the Lab is the “OpenRoACH: A Durable Open-Source Hexapedal Platform […]
iGEM at Berkeley is a for students by students organization focused on developing synthetic and computational biology research projects. It gives members the opportunity to develop experimental design, synthetic biology, and literature search/design skills.
