Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer
Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Semi-Discretization of a Euler-Bernoulli Beam and Its Application to Motion Planning
We consider a Euler-Bernoulli beam with sliding cantilever boundary conditions at both ends. The control input to the beam is the force acting on one of the cantilevers.

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Evaluation of an active force control for flexible structure
The conventional method of suppressing the vibration by using passive damping which consists of mounting passive material on a structure will lead to increase the weight of the structure and hence decreasing the performance.

Flexible Pipes: Slug Flow and Structure Coupling [PDF]
In this thesis, a computational scheme for coupled internal multiphase flow and structural dynamic of flexible pipes is presented and tested. The model consists of a 1D simulator based on a slug tracking model, and a 3D structural dynamic simulator based

A Time-History Contact Force Model of the Dynamic Load of AERORail Structures
This study proposes two curves that depict the vehicle–bridge contact force in a novel transportation system named AERORail, which is a lightweight cable-supported structure in which the rails and the prestressed cable form the load bearing system. Based

Vibration Control for Two Kinds of Flexible Mechanical Systems With Full State Output Constraints
This paper concentrates on the vibration control problem of a flexible string system and a flexible Euler-Bernoulli beam system for considering full state output constraints, i.e., deflection and speed constraints.
