🍂 New paper (JMPS, OA): Midveins control how drying leaves curl/fold. Soft lamina shrinks; stiff vein resists → stress → 3D shapes. Nonlinear, non-Euclidean mechanics—and bioinspiration for morphable materials. 🔗

Researchers challenged longhorn crazy ants and humans with the same task: maneuvering a T-shaped object through two consecutive open doorways. Single humans always outperformed single ants, but ant groups could beat human groups. In PNAS:
