(Nanowerk News) Jellyfish can't do much besides swim, sting, eat, and breed. They don't even have brains. Yet, these simple creatures can easily journey to the depths of the oceans in a way that ...

At the Dabiri Lab, researchers are embedding microelectric controllers into jellyfish, creating "biohybrid" devices. For years, science fiction has promised a future filled with robots that can swim, ...

In a dark laboratory at the University of Colorado Boulder, soft pulses of light dance across the surface of a large aquarium. Inside, moon jellyfish move in slow, hypnotic patterns. Their clear, bell ...

University of Colorado Boulder Professor Nicole Xu is developing biohybrid robotic jellyfish by integrating tiny microelectronic systems into the live animals. Xu has about 15 to 20 moon jellyfish in ...

Climate change is warming ocean waters, making the environment more acidic thanks to the absorption of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This endangers various marine species, and monitoring those ...

Jellyfish are some of the most mysterious and beautiful creatures in the sea. They have no bones, no brains, and yet they’ve ...

If you want to gather climate-change data from the deep ocean, why not just hitch a ride with an organism that's going down there anyways? That's the thinking which led to the creation of "biohybrid ...

This time-lapse composite image shows a biohybrid robot jellyfish descending through the three-story tank designed for testing the swimming abilities of the modified creatures. Jellyfish can't do much ...
