Advances in Mechatronics and Biomechanics towards Efficient Robot Actuation
iological systems such as animals and humans can be energetically autonomous for several days and some species endure even longer. Today's robotic systems aim to match the physical capabilities of their biological counterparts in terms of strength, agility, and dexterity, yet fail to display untethered operating times any longer than few hours.

Advances in Mechanisms of Renal Fibrosis
Scarring of the glomerular and tubulointerstitial compartments is a hallmark of progressive kidney disease and is considered a common pathway leading to end-stage of renal failure. Renal fibrosis involves a complex interplay between intrinsic kidney cells, leukocytes, and fibroblasts in which transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) plays a key role. Inhibition of TGF-β1 suppresses renal fib…
