Information Transfer During Food Choice in the Slime Mold Physarum polycephalum

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Throughout evolution, living systems have developed mechanisms to make adaptive decisions in the face of complex and changing environmental conditions. Most organisms make such decisions despite lacking a neural architecture.

Does Digitalization Widen Labor Income Inequality?

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We develop a growth model that endogenizes the occupational choice of workers with different ability levels to study how digitalization affects labor income inequality. The framework incorporates digitalization's multifaceted effects on the economy: (i) it influences economic growth through automation, and (ii) it affects labor income ...

Tasks as a Link Between Technology Introduction and Continuing Training: Evidence of a Mediating Mechanism in Firms

open access: yesInternational Journal of Training and Development, EarlyView.
Abstract New technology is changing the skills that employers demand and the tasks that employees perform. Technological change is therefore increasing the need for continuing vocational training. However, little is known about the association between technology introduction, employees' job tasks and continuing training participation in firms ...

Patience Stones: Material Encounters for Slow Currents of Pedagogy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Art &Design Education, EarlyView.
Abstract This article moves across sites in Canada and Japan with the practice of making Patience Stones (Sang‐e Saboor), a biodegradable, dough‐based artistic and pedagogical object that invites artist–teachers and artist–learners into with‐nessing and slow becoming.

A lumped parameter model of endoplasm flow in Physarum polycephalum explains migration and polarization-induced asymmetry during the onset of locomotion.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The plasmodial slime mold Physarum polycephalum exhibits strong, periodic flow of cytoplasm through the veins of its network. In the special case of mesoplasmodia, a newly described starvation-induced, shape-constant morphotype, this periodic endoplasm ...

Isolation and Identification of Erysipelothrix sp. in Hybrid Grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus × E. lanceolatus) in Taiwan

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In February 2025, a mortality event of unknown aetiology occurred at a hybrid grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus × Epinephelus lanceolatus) aquaculture farm in southern Taiwan, with sporadic daily deaths persisting for a month. Four moribund groupers were collected over three sampling intervals for diagnostic investigation.

Beyond single cells: Ten years of commercial lattice light‐sheet microscopy

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Lattice light‐sheet microscopy (LLSM) enables gentle, rapid, volumetric fluorescence imaging of living biological systems. The technique employs Bessel beam interference to produce a light‐sheet which retains its thickness over a relatively large field‐of‐view compared to other light‐sheets.

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.

Similarities Between the Lipid Profiles of Skin and Liver of European Sea Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) Fed Diets With Different Lipid Content

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The fatty acid composition of fish is influenced by species, age, diet, and tissues, which respond differently to dietary lipids. This study examined how two commercial diets with contrasting polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) profiles, affecting eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), alter the fatty acid composition in ...
