Strength through diversity: how cancers thrive when clones cooperate
Intratumor heterogeneity can offer direct benefits to the tumor through cooperation between different clones. In this review, Kuiken et al. discuss existing evidence for clonal cooperativity to identify overarching principles, and highlight how novel technological developments could address remaining open questions.

On a hyperbolic Keller-Segel system with degenerate nonlinear fractional diffusion
We investigate a Keller-Segel model with quorum sensing anda fractional diffusion operator. This model describes thecollective cell movement due to chemical sensing with fluxlimitation for high cell densities and with anomalous mediarepresented by a ...

Diffusion‐based size determination of solute particles: a method adapted for postsynaptic proteins
We present a diffusion‐based approach for measuring the size of macromolecules and their complexes, and demonstrate its use on postsynaptic proteins. The method requires fluorescein‐labelled protein samples, a microfluidic device that maintains laminar flow for said samples, a microscope recording the emitted fluorescent signals, and an analytic ...

Thermal Energy Diffusion Incorporating Generalized Einstein Relation for Degenerate Semiconductors
The currently used generalized Einstein relation for degenerate semiconductors with isotropic nonparabolic energy bands produces physically improper results, as well as losing numerical accuracy for large values of nonparabolicity parameters at room ...

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Gradient estimates for degenerate diffusion equations. I
SynopsisWe establish upper and lower bounds for various norms of solutions and their gradients for the equation ut = div (|∇u|m−1 ∇u) in ℝN in terms of the norms of the initial data. Based on the L∞ estimate of ∇u, we conclude that u(x, t) is Lipschitz continuous in space-time, for all t>0, whenever u(x,0) is in L1(ℝN).

The uniqueness of a nonlinear diffusion equation related to the p-Laplacian
Consider a nonlinear diffusion equation related to the p-Laplacian. Different from the usual evolutionary p-Laplacian equation, the equation is degenerate on the boundary due to the fact that the diffusion coefficient is dependent on the distance ...
