Control of Cytoplasmic Inheritance in Plants
In plants, genetic material is stored in the nucleus and the two cytoplasmic organelles: plastids and mitochondria.While both the nuclear and cytoplasmic genomes are essential for...
The Mathematics of Quantum Propagation
Strongly interacting and strongly correlated quantum many-body systems are at the forefront of modern quantum physics.Experimentalists have obtained unprecedented control on the in...
Fluidity in the Medieval Aristotle. Readers and Readings of the Greek-Latin Translations
Aristotles impact on philosophy, science, and theology has been overwhelming, especially in the late medieval and early modern periods: hundreds of Aristotelian manuscripts survive...
Micro-meta-structures for computational sensors with built-in memory
Sensory input in integrated systems is expected to increase with the entrance of AI and Internet-of-Things, requiring systems to become efficient and autonomous.The proposed resear...
Advancing orbitronics by pushing electron orbital angular momentum to terahertz speed
The spin angular momentum (S) of the electron has significantly extended conventional electronics, which relies on the electron charge (C), by new, so-called spintronic functionali...
Paving the way for off-the-shelf adoptive Treg therapy using epigenetic forward programming
Regulatory T cells (Treg) are a type of immune cell that can suppress harmful inflammation caused by autoimmune diseases or organ transplant rejection.Using Treg as a living drug i...
Neural Stem Cell Coordination: a Developmental, Evolutionary and Circuit perspective
The adult mammalian brain exhibits a remarkable capacity of adaptation, which has long been thought to result from synaptic remodeling of neurons born during development.Importantl...
Aerosols, Convection, Clouds, and Climate Sensitivity: understanding the processes and climate impacts of the interactions between aerosol pollution and tropical convective clouds
Interactions between anthropogenic aerosol particles and clouds are the largest source of uncertainty in the historical radiative forcing of climate.Aerosol effects on tropical dee...
Beyond Thalidomide: The Patient as an Agent of Change
Beyond Thalidomide will trace the historical rise of patient engagement with drug related disability through the second half of the twentieth century to understand how a novel empo...
Tracking the dispersal of Homo sapiens into the Levant and across wider Eurasia
The diaspora of modern humans from Africa into Eurasia and beyond is one of the seminal chapters in the history of our species. Modern humans emerged in Africa by 250-300,000-years...
TURBOEEG: A fast open-source brain imaging package for electroencephalography
Electroencephalography (EEG) from scalp potentials is a crucial non-invasive technique for imaging the electric brain activity.EEG is of primary importance in several scenarios of...
PeptInsure: Using Peptides to ensure, assure and Insure protein authenticity and quality
Food fraud and mislabeling undermine public trust in the food industry and regulatory bodies. The scale of these issues is heightened by the so-called Protein Gap.PeptInsure offers...
Understanding how long non-coding RNAs adapt the adipocyte for specialised lipid storage and breakdown.
Energy is stored in adipocytes as a large uniocular lipid droplet, which can be broken down into fatty acids (FAs) and released into the circulation when needed.This specialised li...
Artificial Scientific Discovery of advanced Quantum Hardware with high-performance Simulators
The experimental capabilities to generate, control, and measure complex quantum systems have dramatically improved over the last few years.With ingenious proposals for practical ap...
Implementing a new line of defence to avoid the catastrophic collapse of precast buildings
Disastrous building collapses often occur due to the propagation of local-initial failures.Although effective for small initial failures, current design approaches addressing this...
Mineralization within macromolecular condensates – the chemical playground of living cells
Organisms form crystalline materials with superior structural and mechanical properties.This arises from the ability of functional macromolecules to create intricate architectures...
Linguistic Texts of Roman Antiquity. Collecting fragments, sources and lexicon in a digital environment
All modern histories of Western linguistics start with its Greek origins (5th - 3rd cent. BC) and then, after mentioning the Latin Republican polymath Varro (1st cent. BC), jump se...
Volatile dynamics and regolith interactions on solar system bodies
Over the recent decades, several remote observations have provided evidence for water on the Moon. Due to the lack of in-situ measurements, the nature of lunar water is not yet suf...
Beyond self-similarity in turbulence
A century of exhaustive turbulence research has allowed the development of a wide range of turbulence closure models, analytical parametrisations and scaling laws, which enter virt...
Reassessing Bacterial Cell Cycle Regulation: Revealing Novel Regulatory Principles in Realistic Environments
Antibiotic resistance is quickly becoming one of the greatest healthcare challenges of our time. It is soon expected to claim more lives annually than the COVID-19 pandemic or canc...
