Engineering small autonomous agents capable of operating in the microscale environment remains a key challenge, with current systems still evolving. Our study explores the fruit fly, , a classic model system in biology and a species adept at microsca...
Invertebrate research ethics has largely been ignored compared to the consideration of higher order animals, but more recent focus has questioned this trend. Using the robotic control ofas a case study, we examine ethical considerations in invertebra...
This study presents an attractive single-component ratiometric fluorescent sensor that utilizes the oxidation of BSA-protected Au nanoclusters (BSA-Au NCs) by -Bromosuccinimide (NBS) to detect catecholamine neurotransmitters and their metabolites, wh...
Despite advancements in video-based behaviour analysis and detection models for various species, existing methods are suboptimal to detect macaques in complex laboratory environments. To address this gap, we present MacqD, a modified Mask R-CNN model...
Animal-robot interaction (ARI) is an emerging field that uses biomimetic robots to replicate biological cues, enabling controlled studies of animal behavior. This study investigates the potential for ARI systems to induce local enhancement (e.g. wher...
The detection, observation, recognition, and statistics of marine plankton are the basis of marine ecological research. In recent years, digital holography has been widely applied to plankton detection and recognition. However, the recording and reco...
Agriculture is an essential foundation that supports numerous economies, and the longevity of the coffee business is of paramount significance. Controlling and safeguarding coffee farms from harmful pests, including the Coffee Berry Borer, Mealybugs,...
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: The species Siparuna guianensis Aublet (family Siparunaceae) is traditionally used by indigenous peoples and riverine communities in Central and South America to treat migraines, flu, respiratory diseases, fever, pain,...
