Are physiological oscillations physiological?

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract figure legend Mechanisms and functions of physiological oscillations. Abstract Despite widespread and striking examples of physiological oscillations, their functional role is often unclear. Even glycolysis, the paradigm example of oscillatory biochemistry, has seen questions about its oscillatory function.

Slime mould solves maze in one pass ... assisted by gradient of chemo-attractants

open access: yes, 2011
Plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum is a large cell, visible by unaided eye, which exhibits sophisticated patterns of foraging behaviour. The plasmodium's behaviour is well interpreted in terms of computation, where data are spatially extended ...

Slime Molds in the Laboratory

open access: yesThe American Biology Teacher, 1982
The plasmodial slime molds, or Myxomycetes, are a small (about 450 known species), rather insignificant, but widely distributed group of organisms having characteristics of both plants and animals. They produce fruiting bodies and spores similar to those of many fungi.

Combining genetic and isotope frameworks improves reconstruction of fish provenance across riverscapes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the spatial ecology of migratory species is uniquely challenging using conventional approaches. In fisheries such as for Pacific salmon, genetic stock identification (GSI) and isotope‐based methods have emerged as strategies for reconstructing spatial ecology but are limited by the spatial resolution of genetic differentiation ...

Bioelectronic Hydrogels: Exemplifying the Synergy Between Biopolymers and Conjugated Polymers

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review aims to highlight the benefits of biopolymer‐based conductive hydrogels as soft bioelectronics for biointerface applications. Biopolymers deliver biocompatibility, commercial availability, low cost, and sustainability, whereas conjugated polymers provide electronic conductivity.

NEFI: Network Extraction From Images

open access: yes, 2015
Networks and network-like structures are amongst the central building blocks of many technological and biological systems. Given a mathematical graph representation of a network, methods from graph theory enable a precise investigation of its properties.

Unequal Spaces, Unequal Minds: How Spatial Inequality Drives Excessive Educational Consumption

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The after‐school educational services market is booming, driven by growing parental anxiety and demand for excessive tutoring. This paper identifies spatial inequality, defined as the uneven distribution of resources across geographic areas, as a key driver that pushes parents toward excessive consumption of educational products.

Synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids in the slime mold Physarum polycephalum and the zooflagellates Leishmania tarentolae, Trypanosoma lewisi, and Crithidia sp.: a comparative study

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1965
On the basis of the unsaturated fatty acids which they synthesize, protists can be grouped in a meaningful way. Thus, the unsaturated fatty acids of the true slime mold are identical with the unsaturated fatty acids of the soil amoebae Acanthamoeba and ...
