Adaptation and Evolution of Biological Materials [PDF]
Abstract Research into biological materials often centers on the impressive material properties produced in Nature. In the process, however, this research often neglects the ecologies of the materials, the organismal contexts relating to how a biological material is actually used.

Modeling adaptive biological systems [PDF]
During the evolution of many systems found in nature, both the system composition and the interactions between components will vary. Equating the dimension with the number of different components, a system which adds or deletes components belongs to a class of dynamical systems with a finite dimensional phase space of variable dimension. We present two

Serum Response Factor in muscle tissues: from development to ageing
Skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle cells share various common characteristic features. During development the embryonic mesodermal layer contribute at different proportions to the formation of these tissues.
