Comparison of measures of crowding, group size, and diversity

open access: yesEcosphere, 2017
In ecology, diversity is often measured as the mean rarity of species in a community. In behavioral sciences and parasitology, mean crowding is the size of the group to which a typical individual belongs.

Crowding of Brownian spheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study two models consisting of reflecting one-dimensional Brownian "particles" of positive radius. We show that the stationary empirical distributions for the particle systems do not converge to the harmonic function for the generator of the ...

Stretching the Printability Metric in Direct‐Ink Writing with Highly Extensible Yield‐Stress Fluids

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces “drawability” as a new metric for assessing printability in direct‐ink writing, focusing on gap‐spanning performance and speed robustness. By designing yield‐stress fluids with high extensibility, we demonstrate that extensional strain‐to‐break significantly enhances printability.

Consequences of developmental and growth-rate plasticity within and across life stages in wood frogs (Rana sylvatica)

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
Increased trait responsiveness to the environment can provide short-term benefits but may induce delayed costs. Anurans (frogs and toads) provide an excellent system to examine phenotypic plasticity and developmental carry-over effects given their ...

Many-body effects on tracer particle diffusion with applications for single-protein dynamics on DNA

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
30% of the DNA in E. coli bacteria is covered by proteins. Such a high degree of crowding affects the dynamics of generic biological processes (e.g. gene regulation, DNA repair, protein diffusion etc) in ways that are not yet fully understood.

Macromolecular crowding explains overflow metabolism in cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Overflow metabolism is a metabolic phenotype of cells characterized by mixed oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) and fermentative glycolysis in the presence of oxygen.

Bioinspired Stabilization of Fluorescent Au@SiO2 Tracers for Multimodal Biological Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a bioinspired stabilization strategy for fluorescent gold‐silica nanoparticles. Inspired by natural biosilica maturation, high‐temperature calcination transforms the silica shells, preventing dissolution in cell culture media and intracellular environments.

Crowding In or Crowding Out? A Classical-Harrodian Perspective [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper investigates the effects of budget deficits within a classical-Harrodian framework in a closed economy. In this framework, growth and cycles are endogenous, underutilized capacity is a recurrent phenomenon, capacity utilization fluctuates ...

Update on Diagnosis and Management of Amblyopia

open access: yesDelhi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2019
Amblyopia is common in the paediatric age group, however it is not well understood. This article highlights the need for diagnosis and management of amblyopia. The current treatment options are also mentioned in detail.

The impact of hospital boarding on the emergency department waiting room

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open, 2020
Background Patient boarding in the emergency department (ED) is a significant issue leading to increased morbidity/mortality, longer lengths of stay, and higher hospital costs.
