Cephalopods like octopus, squid, and cuttlefish seem to be as alien as any alien creature from a sci-fi movie, and it's fun ...

It’s finally happened!” one researcher exclaimed during the team’s livestream on December 3rd, with another adding, “A ...

Researchers have come up with capsules, modelled on cephalopods like squids and cuttlefish, that directly release drugs ...

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), led by Giovanni Traverso, developed a microjet system ...

Researchers are exploring how RNA, a biological substance that went into COVID vaccines, can help treat disease and even ...

The many chambers of their shells likely helped these cephalopods glide through the planet’s warm, shallow seas. A thin, tubelike structure called a siphuncle pumped air through the interior ...

Cephalopods are well-known for their incredible ability to camouflage and communicate via their rapidly color-changing skin. But the process of shifting hues or holding a color takes a significant ...

How can the soft bodies of coleoid cephalopods so aptly hide in their environment? Why must they? What cells and specialized organs make such crypsis possible for one of the older evolutionary ...

It then uses jets, modeled after the organs cephalopods use to propel themselves through the water and to release ink, to eject drugs into the tissue lining the digestive tract. The researchers ...

Ammonites were shelled cephalopods that died out about 66 million years ago. Fossils of them are found all around the world, sometimes in very large concentrations. The often tightly wound shells of ...

Microjet delivery systems that are inspired by cephalopods’ propulsion methods enable the needle-free administration of large biomolecules through the lining of the gastrointestinal tract.
