Genetic drift suppresses bacterial conjugation in spatially structured populations [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2014 ABSTRACTConjugation is the primary mechanism of horizontal gene transfer that spreads antibiotic resistance among bacteria. Although conjugation normally occurs in surface-associated growth (e.g., biofilms), it has been traditionally studied in well-mixed liquid cultures lacking spatial structure, which is known to affect many evolutionary and ...

Fluctuations of radiation from a chaotic laser below threshold [PDF]
, 2004 Radiation from a chaotic cavity filled with gain medium is considered. A set of coupled equations describing the photon density and the population of gain medium is proposed and solved.

Three-level mixing and dark states in transport through quantum dots [PDF]
, 2009 We consider theoretically the transport through the double quantum dot structure of the recent experiment of C. Payette {\it et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 102}, 026808 (2009)] and calculate stationary current and shotnoise. Three-level mixing gives rise

bioRxiv, 2022 Though engineered gene drives hold great promise for spreading through and eventually suppressing populations of disease vectors or invasive species, complications such as resistance alleles and spatial population structure can prevent their success ...

Delayed reactive distractor suppression in aging populations. [PDF]
Psychology and Aging, 2019 Previous studies have tended to infer that reactive control is intact in aging populations because of evidence that proactive control is impaired and that older participants appear to favor reactive control strategies. However, most of these studies did not compare reactive control in young and older participants directly.

Towards Personalized Prostate Cancer Therapy Using Delta-Reachability Analysis [PDF]
, 2015 Recent clinical studies suggest that the efficacy of hormone therapy for prostate cancer depends on the characteristics of individual patients. In this paper, we develop a computational framework for identifying patient-specific androgen ablation therapy

Quality control of long-term mass-reared Aedes albopictus for population suppression
Journal of Pest Science, 2021 The endosymbiotic bacterium Wolbachia is being developed as a tool to suppress mosquito populations and their transmitted pathogens, with successful field trials in multiple countries having resulted in efforts to scale up the capacity to mass-produce ...
