The new research perspective on toads' tongue may help in the development of more efficient electric motors, better prostheses and new medical treatments for neuromuscular diseases like Parkinson's.
A Northern Arizona University researcher is studying a cane toad from Suriname in order to understand the speed, power and energy behind it's ability to capture prey with its tongue.
Parkinson’s Disease - Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment
Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disease caused by progressive dopamine brain cells loss. Symptoms of Parkinson’s disease are correctable to an extent.

The jaw muscles of toad can produce forces greater than 700 times the animal's weight.
The best electric motor achieves about one-third of that force-to-weight ratio, Live Science quoted Nishikawa, as saying.
Robot Controlled by Cables may Help in Stroke and Parkinson?s Patients
A unique robotic device has been developed by experts at Florida Atlantic University. This robot may prove useful in rehabilitating patients suffering from Parkinson's disease and stroke.
