Tree Diversity Limits the Impact of an Invasive Forest Pest
PLOS ONE, 2015 The impact of invasive herbivore species may be lower in more diverse plant communities due to mechanisms of associational resistance. According to the "resource concentration hypothesis" the amount and accessibility of host plants is reduced in diverse plant communities, thus limiting the exploitation of resources by consumers.

Untethered Magnetic Microswimmers for Targeted Particle Transport and Flow Manipulation
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This work introduces magnetically actuated microswimmers to dynamically reconfigure fluid flow within a single microfluidic device. Multiple homogeneous microswimmers are independently controlled by an external magnetic field to perform translational and rotational motions, thereby inducing real‐time flow manipulation.
