Neuroprotective compounds from marine invertebrates
Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2023 Background Neuroinflammation is a key pathological feature of a wide variety of neurological disorders, including Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s, and Huntington’s disease.

Long-term cycles in the history of life: Periodic biodiversity in the Paleobiology Database [PDF]
PLoS ONE 3(12): e4044. (2008), 2008 Time series analysis of fossil biodiversity of marine invertebrates in the Paleobiology Database (PBDB) shows a significant periodicity at approximately 63 My, in agreement with previous analyses based on the Sepkoski database. I discuss how this result did not appear in a previous analysis of the PBDB.

The Influence of Canopy Cover on the Ecological Function of A Key Autogenic Ecosystem Engineer
Diversity, 2019 Intertidal fucoid algae can function as ecosystem engineers across temperate marine regions. In this investigation, we assessed the function of the alga dominating rocky reefs in temperate Australia and New Zealand, Hormosira banksii.

Ocean acidification affects marine chemical communication by changing structure and function of peptide signalling molecules [PDF]
, 2016 Ocean acidification is a global challenge that faces marine organisms in the near future with a predicted rapid drop in pH of up to 0.4 units by the end of this century.

The long-time dynamics of two hydrodynamically-coupled swimming cells [PDF]
Bull. Math. Biol. (2010) 72, 973-1005, 2009 Swimming micro-organisms such as bacteria or spermatozoa are typically found in dense suspensions, and exhibit collective modes of locomotion qualitatively different from that displayed by isolated cells. In the dilute limit where fluid-mediated interactions can be treated rigorously, the long-time hydrodynamics of a collection of cells result from ...

Vortex arrays and ciliary tangles underlie the feeding-swimming tradeoff in starfish larvae [PDF]
, 2016 Many marine invertebrates have larval stages covered in linear arrays of beating cilia, which propel the animal while simultaneously entraining planktonic prey. These bands are strongly conserved across taxa spanning four major superphyla, and they are responsible for the unusual morphologies of many invertebrate larvae.

Discrete Differential Geometry for $C^{1,1}$ Hyperbolic Surfaces of Non-Constant Curvature [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We develop a discrete differential geometry for surfaces of non-constant negative curvature, which can be used to model various phenomena from the growth of flower petals to marine invertebrate swimming. Specifically, we derive and numerically integrate a version of the classical Lelieuvre formulas that apply to immersions of $C^{1,1}$ hyperbolic ...
