A poem about #MorphologicalComputation produced by #ChatGPT. It's actually quite well done.

Next up in #MorphoTalks Dr. Marcello Calisti (online) -  from @SantAnnaPisa - Italy 🇮🇹 Follow the flow: how to exploit water to make your robot smarter. With Kieran Nazareth and @MorphComp  #SoftRobotics #MorphologicalComputation #Robotics

Open-source magnetic tactile sensor for $5! 🧲 Researchers introduced a magnetic tactile sensor that's low-cost, and easy to fabricate, democratizing tactile sensing for robotics. Operating in unstructured environments like homes and offices requires robots to sense forces

@WorkRemarkably New blog post on my productivity webpage!

📣New blog post! 📣 "75 Ideas to Organise your Research Community" - Organising your research community not only lets you give back, but also demonstrates leadership, which is vital for job applications. Organising also helps you to rapidly build a career-boosting network. No seniority or budget is needed. Here are 75 inspiring ideas! worksmartandberemarkable.com/blog/2025/75-i…

Discover Dr. Claudio Gallicchio’s (University of Pisa - Italy) latest research on “Non-dissipative #ReservoirComputing” by joining us for our next MorphoTalks (Online). With Kieran Nazareth & @MorphComp #Robotics #MorphologicalComputation #SoftRobotics #Technology #Robot

Fundamental limits of reservoir computing: stability vs. reach Reservoir computing (RC) uses the natural dynamics of a large recurrent network to generate time-varying signals. You only train a simple readout, not the whole network, which makes RC appealing both for neuroscience

@LindauWest @Procreate Yes, absolutely!

@MorphComp @Procreate That’s wonderful; fun often sparks the best ideas 🤖✨ Do you think playful sketches sometimes open doors to serious breakthroughs?

I did a little drawing with @Procreate. #SciFi #HybridRobotics #GrowingMachines

@LindauWest @Procreate Thank you, Linda! We work on bio-inspired and growing robots, although not in the style as depicted. The drawing is mostly for fun.

@MorphComp @Procreate Love the creativity; sci-fi sketches always spark wild ideas ✨ What inspired this mix of robotics and organic growth in your drawing?

@CULLYAntoine @imperialcollege Congratulations, Antoine!! Amazing news!

Almost exactly 10 years after joining @imperialcollege as a Postdoc, I am honoured to announce that I am now Professor in Machine Learning and Robotics! 👨‍🎓 🤖 My fantastic team found the best gift to celebrate this special occasion!

🚨 Hiring! We are looking for a postdoc researcher with expertise in computational fluid dynamics and structural simulations to investigate the biomechanical and mechanosensory basis of insect flight. Extreme agility ✅ Morphological computing✅ Meshes!✅ jobs.rvc.ac.uk/vacancy.aspx?r…

@ScienceAlert @harajabi_ In short, we need more #MorphologicalComputation 😉

Humanoid robots tend to be designed around software that controls everything centrally. This "brain-first" approach results in physically unnatural machines. @harajabi_ sciencealert.com/humanoid-robot…
