Detectivity optimization to detect of ultraweak light fluxes with an EM-CCD as binary photon counter array

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
For a wide range of purposes, one faces the challenge to detect light from extremely faint and spatially extended sources. In such cases, detector noises dominate over the photon noise of the source, and quantum detectors in photon counting mode are ...

Stochastic light concentration from 3D to 2D reveals ultraweak chemi- and bioluminescence

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
For countless applications in science and technology, light must be concentrated, and concentration is classically achieved with reflective and refractive elements. However, there is so far no efficient way, with a 2D detector, to detect photons produced

In numbers we trust?

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Scientists go to great lengths to ensure that data are collected and analysed properly, so why, asks Eve Marder, do they apply different standards to data about the number of times research papers have been cited and viewed?

Lost voices

open access: yeseLife, 2015
When a scientist dies too early in their career we miss them as a colleague and as a person and, as Eve Marder explains, we also lose the science they would have done.

Gene birth in a model of non-genic adaptation

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2023
Background Over evolutionary timescales, genomic loci can switch between functional and non-functional states through processes such as pseudogenization and de novo gene birth.

The truth is in the distribution

open access: yeseLife, 2016
There may be as many ways to think about the experience of women in science as there are women in science. Indira Raman offers one perspective.

Science from women’s lives. Better Science? How gendered studies improve science and lives

open access: yesMetode Science Studies Journal, 2017
Recent gender analyses have been opening new paths for innovation and excellence. They are the basis for the Gendered Innovations project, led by the science historian Londa Schiebinger, in joint collaboration with the European Union. However, this work did not come out of nowhere; it is supported by decades of gender and science studies consisting ...

Mechanical Adaptations of Epithelial Cells on Various Protruded Convex Geometries

open access: yesCells, 2020
The shape of epithelial tissue supports physiological functions of organs such as intestinal villi and corneal epithelium. Despite the mounting evidence showing the importance of geometry in tissue microenvironments, the current understanding on how it ...
