How to understand how the insect CNS detects strains in its exoskeleton during behavior? Take a nanoCT scan of the leg, 3D print a copy from resins with cuticle-like properties, attach strain gauges, and yank on it real hard! https://t.co/4AOjcxM7ri @ding_gesa @WVU_MAEResearch

What do you do if your sensory system of interest is too small to record from? 3D print a bigger version, instrument it, and record from it, instead! Check out EE23 and talk to Gesa about her work! #SfN23 @WVU_MAEResearch

[Gesa Dinges @ding_gesa]

Ready for #SfN23 to begin

[Gesa Dinges @ding_gesa]

Now, after a quick nap it's time for the #motorsymposium and #SfN2023. See you soon!

[Gesa Dinges @ding_gesa]

All the official channels will be sharing the event pics in the coming days, so I wanted to share some private pics from our events in NYC and DC.

[Gesa Dinges @ding_gesa]

Thank you @UniCologneNY @dwih_ny and all other organizations and funding that made this possible.

[Gesa Dinges @ding_gesa]

Thank you #GermanEmbassy for the great day!

📸First #sneakpeek at last night: Lot of interest at our panel discussion “From Animals to Robots: How Transatlantic Neuroscience Advances Engineering” at the German House in #NYC!🇩🇪🇺🇸Thanks to all who joined us🙏 recording to follow🔜 @dwih_ny @DFGNorthAmerica @GermanyNY @AFAvH

[Tom Neil @drtomneil]

Finishing off the first session was a brilliant talk by @ding_gesa which highlighted the importance of strain sensor arrangement in insect legs with some very innovative biomimetic 3D-printing

[Gesa Dinges @ding_gesa]

Such a great conference! #SEBbiology

[NeuroMINT @WVUNeuroMINT]

Congrats to Gesa for giving a great presentation at #SEBconference! She’s the model modern interdisciplinary scientist! @ding_gesa @wvustatler
