Abstract: Ionomers are polymers with a small fraction of charged monomers; these bound ions along with free counterions tend to aggregate together strongly in the absence of solvent. They have a wide…
Feb 01, 2017
Abstract: Biological tissues are comprised of functionally specialized cell types that are organized in complex circuits. To understand the workings of complex tissues such as the brain or the…
Jan 25, 2017
Abstract: At the transition to the nanoscale interfacial and finite-size effects become significant which are often neglected in phenomenological models. The properties and the dynamics of dispersed…
Jan 19, 2017
Abstract: Neural stem cells (NSC’s) often give rise to mixed population of cells during differentiation. However the dynamical origin of these mixed states is poorly understood. In this article our…
Jan 16, 2017
Abstract: Global warming and energy shortage raise the concern about greenhouse gases and renewable energy. One of the best routes to covert CO2 into renewable energy and simultaneously reduce the…
Jan 12, 2017
Abstract: Rare events leading to phenotypic variation in a population of genetically identical cells is a recurring theme in current biological research. Recent research indicates that such `non-…
Jan 05, 2017
Abstract: The flow of droplets in confined channels is common in a variety of applications including polymer and emulsion processing as well as oil recovery from porous materials. More recently…
