个人简介
William M. Kiel is interested in the comparative biomechanics of marine invertebrates. He is particularly interested in the functional morphology of musculoskeletal system, the structure, function, development and evolution of muscles, and invertebrate zoology, with a special focus on the biology of cephalopod mollusks (octopus and squid). His research was carried out at different levels, and integrated the range from the behavior of the whole animal to the ultrastructure and biochemistry of its tissues. Various techniques are used, including normal and high-speed video, histological and histochemical methods, optical and transmission electron microscopes, electromyography, muscle mechanics, biochemistry and molecular techniques. His research involves the role of muscle tissue of cephalopods (squid, octopus, nautilus) in creating movement and providing bone support. The principle derived from this analysis has been applied to other structures, such as the tongues of mammals and lizards and the noses of elephants. Recently, these insights have been used to design and build new robot mechanisms in cooperation with engineers and biologists. He is also studying the evolutionary mechanism of muscle specialization, especially the rapid contraction of cephalopod muscles.
