It appears that engineers draw a lot of inspiration from snakes when it comes to robots. We've already shown you snake-inspired machines that dig through sand and soil, snake-like robots that may even be deployed in emergencies, and snake robots that fix pipes on the ocean floor. Robots that are thin, adaptable, and extensible According to a university press release, a group at the University of Toronto Mississauga under the direction of Jessica Burgner-Kahrs, head of the Continuum Robotics Lab, is currently developing extremely thin, adaptable, and extendable robots that medical professionals might utilize to save lives. They accomplish this by entering challenging locations. "Imagine a neurosurgeon doing a brain tumor removal. The surgeon must follow a direct path through the brain ...

Snakes! The very thought of the creatures is enough to send shivers down one's spine. On the other hand, these poisonous creatures may hold some secrets for humankind. According to a statement issued by the institution on Monday, a biomaterials research team from the University of Queensland's Australian Institute for Bioengineering and Nanotechnology (AIBN), led by Postdoctoral Research Fellow Amanda Kijas, has discovered a protein in the venom of two snakes (Australia's eastern brown and scaled viper) that has the potential to serve as a useful accelerant in the natural blood-clotting process that occurs within the human body. A gel with the ability to close wounds As a result of the research, a gel has been developed that can halt bleeding by coagulating at the temperature of the...
