Complex Systems

The scientists at the Complexity Science Hub (CSH) utilized their knowledge of the average number of friends each person has to successfully predict group sizes in a computer game. To achieve this, they employed a physics example of self-organization of particles with spin to model the formation of social groups. Sociologists have focused on how […]

Genetically encoded reporter proteins have been essential of biotechnology research study, permitting researchers to track gene expression, recognize intracellular processes, and unscramble engineered genetic circuits. However, standard reporting plans that depend on fluorescence and other optical methods featured practical restrictions that could overshadow the area’s future progress. Currently, scientists at the University of Washington and

When an egg cell of virtually any kind of sexually reproducing species is fertilized, it triggers a chain of waves that ripple across the egg’s surface area. These waves are created by billions of activated proteins that rise through the egg’s membrane layer like streams of little delving sentinels, indicating the egg begins dividing, folding,

To work with light to activate processes within genetically modified fission yeast cells is amongst the research conducted by the experimental biologists in the Martin Laboratory at the University of Lausanne, led by Professor Sophie Martin. Team members were conducting such experiments when they saw that a specific protein would become displaced from the cell

Observing how cells adhere to surfaces and their motility is vitally essential in studying tissue maintenance, injury healing, and even understanding exactly how cancer progresses. A brand-new paper published in The European Physical Journal Plus by Raj Kumar Sadhu, Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, Israel, steps towards a deeper understanding of these processes. “Cell adhesion
