Robot Locomotion Bipedal robots play soccer with agilityAmos MatsikoDeep reinforcement learning enables autonomous bipedal robots to play soccer. Open in viewerGenerating robust motor skills in bipedal robots in the real world is challenging because of the inability of current control methods to generalize to specific tasks. Haarnoja et al. developed a deep reinforcement learning–based framework for full-body control of humanoid robots, enabling a game of one-versus-one soccer.

Sex Love in an eyeblinkDi JiangMale concave-eared torrent frogs signal sexual readiness using ultrasound, but the females blink at their choice of mate. PHOTO: CALBERT FENG, COURTESY: NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATIONOpen in viewerThe concave-eared torrent frog (Odorrana tormota) lives in fast-flowing streams of the Huangshan Mountains in southern China. The males signal sexual readiness in ultrasound. However, there are 10-fold more males than females, which makes for fierce competition to win a mate.

PerspectiveMicrobiologyA bacterial endosymbiont of marine algae evolved to an organelleRamon Massana [email protected] Info & AffiliationsAbstractEukaryotic cells are notably complex—for example, they have various organelles, which are membrane-bound structures with specific functions. Two of these organelles, mitochondria and chloroplasts, which function in respiration and photosynthesis, evolved from the integration of endosymbiotic bacteria to the eukaryotic cell (1).
