But a team of researchers at Harvard has recognized that there are some behaviors that are so instinctual that it's possible to induce animals to act as if they were robotic. Or mostly robotic, at ...

EPFL researchers use fruit fly brains and optogenetics to develop agile robotic systems, bridging neuroscience and advanced ...

The Florida researchers genetically modified fruit flies to respond to red light. Imagine they behave like a driver stopping a car at a red light. When a beam of light hit their eyes, the insects ...
