Neck injuries in rear-end car collisions is a problem on the increase. It causes severe pain and suffering to the subjected individuals and huge societal costs. The lack of a biofidelic crash dummy for rear-end impact testing has made it difficult to assess the function of the protective systems in cars, mainly the seats and head restraints. A Biofidelic Rear Impact Dummy (BioRID) was developed...

Scyphomedusae undergo a predictable ontogenetic transition from a conserved, universal larval form to a diverse array of adult morphologies. This transition entails a change in bell morphology from a highly discontinuous ephyral form, with deep clefts separating eight discrete lappets, to a continuous solid umbrella-like adult form. We used a combination of kinematic, modeling, and flow visuali...

There is irony; I came up with the original idea in a hallway conversation with Harry Flam a few feet from Persson’...

A traditional view of the nature of species holds that populations within species maintain genetic cohesion through substantial intraspecific gene flow and that the whole genome of a species is protected from interspecific gene flow by strong reproductive isolation. Both aspects of this view have been challenged. Reproductive barriers between recently evolved species can be incomplete and perme...
