NSF-funded researchers build wall-jumping robot! NSF Science Now 48

The video covers various NSF-funded research projects. It starts with the jumping abilities of the Galago and the Salto robot, which mimics this ability for potential search and rescue missions. It then discusses SIG blocks for cognitive testing, crustaceans' camouflage techniques, a new method for detecting nuclear exposure, and the discovery of the oldest known fossil tumor. Each section highlights innovative research and its potential applications.

How could the technology developed by the NSF funded researchers aid in search and rescue operations?

What is the significance of the new noninvasive procedure developed by researchers at the University of Missouri?

What does the discovery of the oldest known fossil tumor help us understand?
