Genetically Programmed Shape‐Morphing of Engineered Living Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, bacterial and mammalian engineered living materials (ELMs) are presented, in which living cells direct genetically programmed and enzymatically mediated shape‐morphing. The resulting deformation and shape‐recovery can be actuated in a genetically controlled manner by an ELM incorporating out‐of‐equilibrium counteracting biochemical reactions with

Non-minimal tinges of Unimodular Gravity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Unimodular Gravity is normally assumed to be equivalent to General Relativity for all matters but the character of the Cosmological Constant. Here we discuss this equivalence in the presence of a non-minimally coupled scalar field.

Guanosine‐Quadruplex Hydrogels as Dynamic, Mechanically Tunable and Ion Conductive 3D Scaffolds for Cell Culture Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Versatile guanosine‐quadruplex (GQ) hydrogels are developed as dynamic biomatrices for cell culture. These scaffolds are fabricated under mild aqueous conditions, present improved stability, tunable mechanical properties within physiological ranges; fibrillar, porous microstructure, ion conductivity, and cytocompatibility.

Unifying physics theories with a single postulate

open access: yesPhysics Open
Humans have developed mathematical theories to explain observed physical phenomena in nature. However, the links between these theories are not fully understood in 2024.

The history and the meaning of Einstein’s Principle of Equivalence

open access: yesScience & Philosophy, 2020
We review from a historical and a didactic point of view the Equivalence Principle, which was considered by Einstein as the corner stone of his new theory of Gravitation: the General Relativity.

Some Thoughts on Relativity and the Flow of Time: Einstein's Equations given Absolute Simultaneity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The A-theory of time has intuitive and metaphysical appeal, but suffers from tension, if not inconsistency, with the special and general theories of relativity (STR and GTR).

Topical collection: in memory of professor T Padmanabhan

open access: yes, 2022
Professor Thanu Padmanabhan contributed significantly to a broad spectrum of topics in astrophysics, cosmology, and classical and quantum aspects of gravitation.

Advances in 3D Bioprinting for Breast Cancer Modeling: Tumor Microenvironment, Metastasis, and Drug Screening

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional bioprinting transforms breast cancer modeling from simple constructs into spatially organized, multicellular, perfused, and patient‐derived platforms. This review shows how bioinks, cellular composition, architecture, and flow govern tumor behavior and drug response, while revealing why complexity alone is insufficient without ...

The 5D Fully-Covariant Theory of Gravitation and Its Astrophysical Applications

open access: yesGalaxies, 2014
In this paper, we comprehensively review the five-dimensional (5D) fully-covariant theory of gravitation developed by Zhang two decades ago and its recent applications in astrophysics and cosmology. This 5D gravity describes not only the fields, but also

Mass and energy in general relativity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We consider the Denisov-Solov'ov example which shows that the inertial mass is not well defined in General Relativity. It is shown that the mathematical reason why this is true is a wrong application of the Stokes theorem. Then we discuss the role of the
