A stepwise emergence of evolution in the RNA world
How did biological evolution emerge from chemical reactions? This perspective proposes a gradual scenario of self‐organization among RNA molecules, where catalytic feedback on random mixtures plays the central role. Short oligomers cross‐ligate, and self‐assembly enables heritable variations. An event of template‐externalization marks the transition to

Critique of Hirsch's citation index: a combinatorial Fermi problem [PDF]
The h-index was introduced by the physicist J.E. Hirsch in 2005 as measure of a researcher's productivity. We consider the "combinatorial Fermi problem" of estimating h given the citation count.

Effects of varying force levels and combinations of force application and release during an isometric pinch force task [PDF]
Fine motor control is important for the completion of many activities of daily living, such as writing, eating, buttoning a shirt, and texting. All these tasks require a high amount of continuous coordination and regulation of increasing and decreasing ...
