FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

Students' perspectives on the nature of mathematics [PDF]
, 2006 This paper reports on one small component of a much larger study that explored the perspectives of students towards mathematics learning. Students were asked “What do you think maths is all about?” Some students responded in terms of mathematical content.

Mathematical Modeling of Group Concurrency in Game Theory
Journal of Computational and Engineering Mathematics, 2015 The approach to an estimation of results of group "competitions" of intellectual agents is described. Petri-Markov models group "competition" are analyzed. Expressions for the determination of the probability density distribution and the participants or groups of participants win or lose "competition" are given.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...

From tumor‐centric to ecosystem‐based hypotheses in brain tumor research and care
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Primary brain tumors, whether in adults or children, present a major challenge because of their dramatic prognosis and the ongoing lack of efficient therapeutic approaches. In recent years, a shift has occurred from tumor‐centric concepts to a more holistic view of these tumors as dynamic ecosystems.

Making mathematics meaningful: Using student-initiated problems to situate mathematics [PDF]
, 2014 Mathematics is everywhere-from the minute we open our eyes to check the alarm clock and calculate how many minutes extra we can afford to lie in bed, to measuring out our cereal for breakfast and estimating if we have enough petrol to make the 18 ...
