I'm happy to share our highly collaborative paper in Science Robotics. The paper integrates ideas from robotics, 3D printable materials, and mechanics to build thermo-responsive hydrogel crawlers. Thanks to the U.S. National Science Foundation for funding our EFRI project!

Whoa! Sam’s article made the cover! Really fun to work with these folks, working out a computational anatomy of the fly flight controller!

Chris's paper is out in JNP -- check out how we used system identification to evaluate habit formation in motor learning.

Priceless!

OK look — the viral video of a ball bouncing robot is cool. But don’t bore me with your concerns about self-aware robots from that video. 🙄 And, anyway this is the original beast, built in Dan Koditschek’s lab. The Buehgler: youtu.be/u8I7EXXgTvk

Targeting key issues in the new @gordonneuro paper in nature on M1 functional organization. Our open review with DiedrichsenLab and Dollyane Muret offers alternative perspectives and encourages more thoughtful interpretation. Explore our thoughts: diedrichsenlab.org/BrainDataScien…

An outstanding, well-deserved honor for a brilliant colleague. Warmest congratulations, Amy!

The viscosity paper is out, with Luna Lin and Flexible Structures Laboratory @ EPFL! It started way back in 2013 with an undergraduate: what happens when lampreys swim in viscous fluids? Or what happens when the forces on their bodies change? Can they compensate for the changes? doi.org/10.1242/jeb.24…

What do you call a student who conducts a short-term project with you on how the brain represents 3D orientation? A rotation student. (Bracing for eye rolls)

This old clip of Donald Trump from the 90s needs to go viral. He's always been a racist freak.

Sabbatical project! Journal club of my lab's papers, first paper done! youtube.com/@ProfessorCowan
