Elements of Feed-Forward and Feedback Control in Drosophila Body Saccades [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
I have developed a new experimental preparation of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. A fly is glued to a steel pin, which is held in the field between two magnets such that the fly is free to rotate about only one axis. Such "magnetically tethered"

Thermodynamic Limits to Molecular Doping in Conjugated Polymers: A Perspective on Phase Behavior and Miscibility

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular doping of conjugated polymers is fundamentally constrained by thermodynamic phase behavior. This Perspective reframes doping efficiency and stability in terms of miscibility limits, binodals, and solvus boundaries, highlighting the role of effective interaction parameters and charge transfer.
