Science News Video: Scientists struggle to ‘awaken’ patients from rare sleep disorders
The waning light of autumn and the rewinding of clocks can throw just about anyone’s sleep out of whack, at least for a little while. But for people with rare sleeping disorders, the struggle never ceases. Patients with idiopathic hypersomnia (IH)—like Victoria Kirby York of Ft. Washington, Maryland—never feel rested, despite sleeping as many as 11 hours in one day. The disorder is a struggle for patient and doctor alike: Researchers are still trying to uncover IH’s most basic biological mechanisms.

Credit: Lacey Williams/Alexandra Anstett/Erick Higuera/Jonathan R. Green
If you’re a fish with an itch, a shark would seemingly be the last thing you’d turn to for a scratch. Yet scientists now report spotting several species of fish swimming up to sharks and intentionally rubbing them. The prey appear to be using the predators’ rough skin to rid themselves of parasites.

Science News Video: This long-lasting hydrogel could be used to replace damaged human tissues
More entanglements in the material help polymer chains slip without breaking
Read the research: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abg6320
Hydrogels, water-absorbing materials similar to soft tissues, have been used in countless biomedical applications, from contact lenses to pill coatings. But it’s hard to create hydrogels that can hold up to repeated stresses—after enough uses, many reach a “breaking” point where they stretch out and cannot return to their original shape. Now, researchers at Harvard University have manipulated one material’s underlying structure to make a hydrogel that is both stretchy and tough.
Hydrogels are made of polymer strands that stick together in two ways: chemical bonds known as cross-links, and entanglements, in which one polymer chain weaves around another. Increasing the number of cross-links creates a more rigid, brittle hydrogel. But the researchers found that when they increased the number of entanglements along each chain—from just one or two along each chain to over a hundred—they made a material that was tough, but still stretchy enough to use as an artificial muscle or to coat the surface of an artificial joint. The dense entanglements allowed the chains to slip around and tug on each other without breaking. Watch the video to learn how they perfected this recipe.

Science News Video: Watch a jumping spider’s focus shift from a cricket to a predator | Science News
A jumping spider watches videos while a special eye tracker records where the spider’s principal eyes are looking. Researchers can tell that a jumping spider is focusing its principal eyes on a cricket silhouette when the white X lands and stays on the cricket. While the principal eyes focus on the cricket, the researchers add shapes like a growing or receding oval in view of the secondary eyes. Only when the oval is growing do the principal eyes shift their focus to the oval. An object growing in the periphery just might be an approaching predator.

Science News Video: Watch (and listen) to the Habronattus formosus courtship dance | Science News
Turn up your sound to hear a male jumping spider thumping, scraping and buzzing to impress a potential mate. The vibrations he makes with his legs and abdomen are sent through the ground to the female, beyond human perception. But researchers can pick up the seismic songs using laser vibrometry.
