Nature conservation faces a growing paradox: while unprecedented volumes of biodiversity data are being collected, effective conservation action is increasingly constrained by the lack of detailed, large-scale...

Quantifying the dynamics of particle suspensions is a widespread interest in soft matter. For instance, probing the motion of cells or larger organisms can help us understand biological behavior. When multiple...

How does the collective activity of neurons leads to the emergence of behavior ? Attractor neural networks, such as the Hopfield model, have been proposed to underlie various computations involved in behaviors such...

On the surface of fungal cells under shear stress, amyloid-like cross-β bonds cluster adhesins to make high avidity adhesive patches. The cross-b bonding is essential for formation of robust biofilms that remain...
Lydia Robert
Fluorescence microscopy is often limited by photobleaching, which fades fluorescent signals, and by phototoxicity, which damages living cells during imaging. Photobleaching is thought to involve the formation of...
Jean Charles Mariani
Despite decades of applications in both clinical and preclinical settings, the exact nature of large-scale functional connectivity (FC) and resting-state network (RSN) activity remains debated. It has recently been...
Marc Besse
Active systems, such as living cells, are traditionally modelled via self-propelled particles driven by internal forces. It is however often assumed that these internal forces do not depend on the environment which...

Kinetic proofreading is an error-correcting mechanism by which biology expends energy to avoid mistakes during processes like replication and translation. Proofreading is typically assumed to evolve due to a...

3D tissues that develop from a monolayer can take different forms: from folded monolayers -tubes or spheres - to bulk tridimensional tissues such as muscles, stratified epithelia, or epithelial tumors. In vivo,...
