Come catch my talk at #APSMarch tomorrow morning in the robophysics session! I'll talk about some tiny jumping springtails and how they can teach us about controlling ultrafast jumps! Vid credit: Adrian Smith

Zoo Biomechanics Day has arrived!!! Come by ZooATL today from 10am - 2pm to see some awesome biomechanics research!!!

Young-Hui Chang David Munteanu David L. Hu Vicon @chasing_frogs @GTSciences Jennifer Rieser Station 10: Tiny but mighty: Spirostomum ambiguum! Come see some amazing ultrafast motion and the technology that lets researchers understand it with the Saad Bhamla!

Only one day left to apply for the Jungle Biomechanics Lab! Join us for cool science in the jungle!

Does anyone have CT scans or surface files of marine larvae? I'm working on a lecture and I'd love for my students to have some 3D prints of tiny marine larvae to hold in their hands!

Our ongoing research at Saad Bhamla with Nithil Nagappan and Jacob S. Harrison on Rhagovelia water-walking insects was featured on American Physical Society news. Trying to understand why this macro-scale insect moves in a curious run and tumble-like motion like E-coli. aps.org/publications/a…

i reflected on my childhood and naturalism and how dismally white environmental work is and whether cicadas can remedy that: my latest, a rare personal essay for Atmos: atmos.earth/thanks-cicadas…

I just published a bunch of cool stuff on globular springtails! Read about it and watch them here: news.ncsu.edu/2024/08/this-t…

With Saad Bhamla, Daehyun Choi, We are organizing a APS DSOFT APS Division of Biological Physics @ApsGsnp focus session, “Elastic Instability in Soft Systems” from elastic instability in living and non-living systems to bio-inspired design. Deadline is Oct 25. Please spread this and join us in California
