Overcoming the Newtonian Paradigm: The Unfinished Project of Theoretical Biology from a Schellingian Perspective [PDF]
Defending Robert Rosen’s claim that in every confrontation between physics and biology it is physics that has always had to give ground, it is shown that many of the most important advances in mathematics and physics over the last two

DIP-2 suppresses ectopic neurite sprouting and axonal regeneration in mature neurons. [PDF]
Neuronal morphology and circuitry established during early development must often be maintained over the entirety of animal lifespans. Compared with neuronal development, the mechanisms that maintain mature neuronal structures and architecture are little

Linking eye design with host symbiont relationships in pontoniine shrimps (crustacea, decapoda, palaemonidae) [PDF]
Symbiosis is prevalent in the marine environment with many studies examining the effects of such interactions between host and symbiont. Pontoniine shrimps are a group whose ecology is characterised by symbiotic interactions.

Of hummingbirds and helicopters: Hovering costs, competitive ability, and foraging strategies [PDF]
Wing morphology and flight kinematics profoundly influence foraging costs and the overall behavioral ecology of hummingbirds. By analogy with helicopters, previous energetic studies have applied the momentum theory of aircraft propellers to estimate ...
