Scientists are transforming moon jellyfish into steerable “cyborgs” equipped with sensors, turning these ancient survivors into living explorers of Earth’s changing oceans. This approach offers an ...

Why it matters: The ocean is Earth's largest climate regulator, but its vast size makes it notoriously difficult (and expensive) to study. Biohybrid technology, which merges living organisms with ...
