Communication systems that involve substrate vibrations are increasingly a focus of
research since this communication mode-recently termed biotremology-has been found to …

The neurophysiology of ectothermic animals, such as insects, is affected by environmental
temperature, as their body temperature fluctuates with ambient conditions. Changes in …

We studied bilateral processing in the auditory ON neurons of crickets using reversible cold-
deactivation of the hearing organs by means of Peltier elements. Intracellular recordings of …

The acoustic signalling behaviour of many tree cricket species is easily observed and has
been well described. Very little is known, however, about the receivers in these …

Ultrasensitive, reliable, and rapid chemical vapor sensing is of paramount importance for a
wide variety of applications including bio-diagnostics, homeland security and environmental …

Temporal filtering of sensory input is crucial for the recognition of many sensory stimuli.
