Non-verbal Communication between Humans and Robots: Imitation, Mutual Understanding and Inferring Object Properties

Humans can express their actions and intentions, resorting to verbal and/or non-verbal communication. In verbal communication, humans use language to express, in structured linguistic terms, the desired action they wish to perform. Non-verbal communication ...

Individual and combined benefits of different nonequilibrium proofreading mechanisms

Paolo De Los Rios, Daniel Maria Busiello, Stefano Zamuner, Adélaïde Alice Mohr

Genome duplication, transcription, and translation are among many crucial cellular processes that need to be performed with high fidelity. However, those extremely low error rates cannot be explained with simple equilibrium thermodynamic considerations. Th ...

Frequent asymmetric migrations suppress natural selection in spatially structured populations

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol, Alia Abbara

Natural microbial populations often have complex spatial structures. This can impact their evolution, in particular the ability of mutants to take over. While mutant fixation probabilities are known to be unaffected by sufficiently symmetric structures, ev ...

Reanalysis of mtDNA mutations of human primordial germ cells (PGCs) reveals NUMT contamination and suggests that selection in PGCs may be positive

Konstantin Popadin

The resilience of the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) to a high mutational pressure depends, in part, on negative purifying selection in the germline. A paradigm in the field has been that such selection, at least in part, takes place in primordial germ cells ...

Impact of substrate clogging on vertical connectivity

Giovanni De Cesare, Romain Maxime Dubuis, Robin Schroff

Connectivity between the hyporheic zone and the flow is essential for the development of benthos and the reproductive success of spawning fish. The infiltration of fine sediment leads to clogging of the riverbed, reducing porosity and vertical water exchan ...

PSGL-1 is an evolutionarily conserved antiviral restriction factor

Ying Liu, Chao Jiang

The arms race between viruses and their hosts shaped the evolutionary history and the genome composition of both parties. Restriction factors are the first-line antiviral effectors encoded by the host genomes and are often conserved through evolution to pr ...

Why do we need so many proteins? A physical insight into the collaboration of Hsp70 and DnaJ

Adélaïde Alice Mohr

The Hsp70 cycle is a key element of protein homeostasis, which is essential to avoid protein aggregation and protein-related diseases. Despite many experimental observations of the interaction between Hsp70, its co-chaperone DnaJ and various substrates, li ...

Diffusion of energy technologies: the role and dynamics of supply-side information networks

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Romano Tobias Wyss, Gloria Serra Coch, Maria Anna Hecher

The diffusion of energy technologies is key for supporting the energy transition. While social influence and peer effects have been extensively studied on the demand side and found to impact adoption, less focus has been given to the role of information ne ...

Hybrid Wireless-Local Communication via Information Propagation for Modular Robotic Synchronization Applications

Jamie Paik, Kevin Andrew Holdcroft, Christoph Heinrich Belke, Alexander Thomas Sigrist

Modular robots hold promise of adaptability, robustness, and versatility. Synchronization of modules is critical; if a module is asynchronous, not only will the robot fail to perform tasks properly, but its behavior may be self-destructive through self-col ...
