Highly Optimized Tolerance: Robustness and Power Laws in Complex Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We introduce highly optimized tolerance (HOT), a mechanism that connects evolving structure and power laws in interconnected systems. HOT systems arise, e.g., in biology and engineering, where design and evolution create complex systems sharing common ...

Methionine Restriction and Cancer Biology

open access: yesNutrients, 2020
The essential amino acid, methionine, is important for cancer cell growth and metabolism. A growing body of evidence indicates that methionine restriction inhibits cancer cell growth and may enhance the efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents.

Untangling the Conceptual Isssues Raised in Reydon and Scholz’s Critique of Organizational Ecology and Darwinian Populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Reydon and Scholz raise doubts about the Darwinian status of organizational ecology by arguing that Darwinian principles are not applicable to organizational populations.

Systems biology beyond degree, hubs and scale-free networks: the case for multiple metrics in complex networks [PDF]

open access: yesSystems and Synthetic Biology (2012) 6:31-34, 2012
Modeling and topological analysis of networks in biological and other complex systems, must venture beyond the limited consideration of very few network metrics like degree, betweenness or assortativity. A proper identification of informative and redundant entities from many different metrics, using recently demonstrated techniques, is essential.

Singular value decomposition quantum algorithm for quantum biology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
There has been a recent interest in quantum algorithms for the modelling and prediction of non-unitary quantum dynamics using current quantum computers. The field of quantum biology is one area where these algorithms could prove to be useful, as biological systems are generally intractable to treat in their complete form, but amenable to an open ...

The Radical-Pair Mechanism of Magnetoreception.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biophysics, 2016
Although it has been known for almost half a century that migratory birds can detect the direction of the Earth's magnetic field, the primary sensory mechanism behind this remarkable feat is still unclear.

Quantum Mechanics and Biology

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1962
I should like to begin by saying that I feel very diffident about speaking on the subject which the organizers of this Conference invited me to discuss with you. What I have to say will inevitably be limited by the extreme superficiality of my acquaintance with modem biochemistry and biophysics.

Genetically encoded fluorescent redox probes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Redox processes are involved in almost every cell of the body as a consequence of aerobic life. In the past decades, redox biology has been increasingly recognized as one of the key themes in cell signaling.
