Investigating Social Immunity in Swarming Locusts via a Triple Animal–Robot–Pathogen Hybrid Interaction
Animal-Robot Interaction The cover illustrates a gregarious locust interacting with a biomimetic agent inoculated with Beauveria bassiana on an robotic experimental platform, highlighting the dynamics of social immunity and pathogen information spread within the swarm, as explored through innovative biohybrid method of this study.
