Published in 2017 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-16553-5

Abstract: Decades of research on the highly modified wings of Drosophila melanogaster has suggested that insect wings are divided into two Anterior-Posterior (A-P) compartments separated by an axis of symmetry. This axis of symmetry is created… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "IEEE Photonics Journal"

DOI: 10.1109/jphot.2025.3628525

Abstract: Insect wing interference is highly sensitive to the membrane thickness and has shown remarkable potential to differentiate insect species, both ex vivo in laboratory settings and for free-flying insects in situ. While several studies have… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Insect science"

DOI: 10.1111/1744-7917.13498

Abstract: Wings are important organs of insects involved in flight, mating, and other behaviors, and are therefore prime targets for pest control. The formation of insect wings is a complex process that is regulated by multiple… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences"

DOI: 10.1111/nyas.15152

Abstract: One feature of animal wings is their embedded mechanosensory system that can support flight control. Insect wings are particularly interesting as they are highly deformable yet the actuation is limited to the wing base. It… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Optics express"

DOI: 10.1364/oe.451968

Abstract: In this study, a common-path electronic speckle pattern interferometry system which upholds the natural property of transparency of insect's wings has been developed to measure the wings' natural frequencies and mode shapes for the first… read more here.
