Unlike fish, jellyfish move through the sea with minimal energy thanks to a simple muscle-driven propulsion system. This natural motion, known as "embodied intelligence," lets them travel efficiently without a brain or bones-qualities that researchers are now adapting for sustainable marine monitoring. A team led by Dai Owaki, associate professor in Tohoku University's Department of Roboti

The human brain contains about 86 billion neurons. These cells fire electrical signals that help the brain store memories and send information and commands throughout the brain and the nervous system. The brain also contains billions of astrocytes - star-shaped cells with many long extensions that allow them to interact with millions of neurons. Although they have long been thought to be m
