In Caltech labs, robots stride gracefully on treadmills and fly with the complex agility of bats. The researchers engaged in this pioneering work-two of the institute's newest faculty members-are finding solutions to societal problems while seeking fresh insights into the most basic mechanisms of locomotion and flight.
