Spatio-temporal modeling of the crowding conditions and metabolic variability in microbial communities
Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Liliana Angeles Martinez
The metabolic capabilities of the species and the local environment shape the microbial interactions in a community either through the exchange of metabolic products or the competition for the resources. Cells are often arranged in close proximity to each ...
PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE2021Excitonic channels from bio-inspired templated supramolecular assembly of J-aggregate nanowirest
Frank Nüesch, Jakob Heier, Surendra Babu Anantharaman
Supramolecular assemblies with controlled morphology are of paramount importance for energy transport in organic semiconductors. Despite considerable freedom in molecular design, the preparation of dyes that form one dimensional J-aggregates is challenging ...
2019Bacterial type VI secretion system facilitates niche domination
Melanie Blokesch, Natalia Carolina Drebes Dorr
Over the last few decades humanity has experienced a series of tremendous technological advances, especially in the realm of basic science. A plethora of new approaches has allowed us to appreciate life in previously unimaginable detail, prompting the real ...
2018Three-dimensional chemotaxis-driven aggregation of tumor cells
Alessandro De Simone, Andrea Gamba
One of the most important steps in tumor progression involves the transformation from a differentiated epithelial phenotype to an aggressive, highly motile phenotype, where tumor cells invade neighboring tissues. Invasion can occur either by isolated mesen ...
Nature Publishing Group2015Surface micro-structuring of glassy carbon for precision glass molding of diffractive optical elements
Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Karin Prater
Glassy carbon is used nowadays for a variety of applications because of its mechanical strength, thermal stability and non-sticking adhesion properties. This makes it also a suitable candidate as mold material for precision compression molding of low and h ...
Spie-Int Soc Optical Engineering2014Release and environmental impact of silver nanoparticles and conventional organic biocides from coated wooden facades
This study represents for the first time a comprehensive assessment of functionality and environmental impacts of metallic silver nanoparticles (Ag-NP) compared to conventional organic biocides. Four different transparent, hydrophobic coatings of wooden ou ...
Elsevier2014Toward a System Design Science
Design is a universal concept. It links the immaterial world of concepts to the physical world. It is an essential area of human experience, expertise, and knowledge, which deals with our ability to mold our environment to satisfy material and spiritual ne ...
Springer-Verlag Berlin2014The simplicity of planar networks
Emanuele Strano, Marc Barthélemy
Shortest paths are not always simple. In planar networks, they can be very different from those with the smallest number of turns - the simplest paths. The statistical comparison of the lengths of the shortest and simplest paths provides a non trivial and ...
Nature Publishing Group2013Are motorways rational from slime mould's point of view ?
We analyse the results of our experimental laboratory approximation of motorways networks with slime mould Physarum polycephalum. Motorway networks of fourteen geographical areas are considered: Australia, Africa, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, I ...
2012Holocene history of Lac des Lauzons (2180 m a.s.l.), reconstructed from multiproxy analyses of Coleoptera, plant macroremains and pollen (Hautes-Alpes, France)
A 1.70 m core extracted from the Lac des Lauzons, Haut Champsaur, French Alps, at 2180 m altitude, provided a detailed Holocene record of beetles, pollen and plant macrofossils, enabling the reconstruction of local palaeoenvironmental changes during the la ...
