Lock-and-Key Exciplexes for Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence
We combine synthetic supramolecular chemistry and materials science to develop novel exciplexes for thermally activated delayed fluorescence. Our approach starts from a bowl-shaped acceptor molecule for which we synthesize tailor-made donors that bind in

Algorithms for the quantitative Lock/Key model of cytoplasmic incompatibility
Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) relates to the manipulation by the parasite Wolbachia of its host reproduction. Despite its widespread occurrence, the molecular basis of CI remains unclear and theoretical models have been proposed to understand the ...

A new model and method for understanding Wolbachia-induced cytoplasmic incompatibility. [PDF]
Wolbachia are intracellular bacteria transmitted almost exclusively vertically through eggs. In response to this mode of transmission, Wolbachia strategically manipulate their insect hosts' reproduction.

Investigating Information Dynamics in Living Systems through the Structure and Function of Enzymes. [PDF]
Enzymes are proteins that accelerate intracellular chemical reactions often by factors of 105-1012s-1. We propose the structure and function of enzymes represent the thermodynamic expression of heritable information encoded in DNA with post-translational

CAS-Lock: A Security-Corruptibility Trade-off Resilient Logic Locking Scheme
Logic locking has recently been proposed as a solution for protecting gatelevel semiconductor intellectual property (IP). However, numerous attacks have been mounted on this technique, which either compromise the locking key or restore the original ...
