3D visualization processes for recreating and studying organismal form

Publikováno v: iScience, Vol 25, Iss 9, Pp 104867- (2022)

Summary: The study of biological form is a vital goal of evolutionary biology and functional morphology. We review an emerging set of methods that allow scientists to create and study accurate 3D models of living organisms and animate those models fo

Structured decision making as a conservation tool for recovery planning of two endangered salamanders

Publikováno v: Journal for Nature Conservation. 37:66-72

At least one-third of all amphibian species face the threat of extinction, and current amphibian extinction rates are four orders of magnitude greater than background rates. Preventing extirpation often requires both ex situ (i.e., conservation breed

Frogs use a viscoelastic tongue and non-Newtonian saliva to catch prey

Autor: Alexis Noel, David Hu, Mark Mandica, Hao-Yuan Guo

Frogs can capture insects, mice and even birds using only their tongue, with a speed and versatility unmatched in the world of synthetic materials. How can the frog tongue be so sticky? In this combined experimental and theoretical study, we perform
