Bounding tiny 'bears'! We found how walking #waterbears coordinate their 8 legs! Meticulous theory analysis from @jasnir_ , and painstaking experiments from @Duranigrade ( highschooler Deborah Johnston!).

#waterbears #Tardigrades MOSSPIGLETS survive more things than Rasputin, are the smallest legged animal, but we don’t know how they walk! Great fun making ‘strides’ on their mechanics with @jasnir_ @Duranigrade and Deborah Johnston. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Wish you had a little more #waterbear in your weekend? Check out our new #tardigrade @biorxivpreprint from a super fun collab with @DJCohenEtAl @Duranigrade and Deborah Johnston! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Full 🧵 soon, but you're 'bound' to enjoy this bear in the meantime!
