Using X-ray-based technology, researchers uncover shared subsurface movement patterns between birds and dinosaurs, adding a new dimension of fossil track diversity. When picturing dinosaur tracks, ...

1-Minute Talk Show hosts Aiden and Sean play the “What Will Aiden Say?” guessing game. Dramatic video shows the moment a US fighter jet narrowly dodges an Iranian missile Trump signs executive order ...

This study characterises motor and somatosensory cortex neural activity during naturalistic eating and drinking tongue movement in nonhuman primates. The data, which include electrophysiology, ...

Movement at complex joints, such as the ankle, can be challenging to quantify from external kinematics alone. We compare x-ray reconstruction of moving morphology (XROMM) and angles derived from ...

Abstract: X-ray Reconstruction of Moving Morphology (XROMM) enables 3D tracking of implanted radiopaque markers in animals to study biomechanics. In recent years, DeepLabCut (DLC) has emerged as an ...

Summary: Researchers leveraged 3D x-ray videography and machine learning to study intricate tongue movements during feeding in non-human primates. The study records the neural activity of the ...

Neuroscientists have learned a great deal about how the brain interprets and controls movements that make up everyday movements like walking, reaching, and grasping objects. But the mechanics of ...

Computational modeling and simulation used to study movement and function in healthy humans, as well as in those with clinical pathologies, is a well-developed field. Computational models of movement ...

A study published this month in the Journal of Experimental Biology led by University researchers used 3D imaging to visualize how boa constrictors adjust the site of breathing within their lungs to ...

Watching a boa constrictor capture and consume its prey is quite something. First, the snake strikes and latches onto the prey with its teeth, then it coils its body tightly around the poor creature ...

Boa constrictors famously hunt by ambushing their prey and then squeezing the captured animals to death with their muscular coils. But as a boa constricts its body around a victim and cuts off blood ...
