Ante rem structuralism and the semantics of instantial terms
Abstract: Ante rem structures were posited as the subject matter of mathematics in order to resolve a problem of referential indeterminacy within mathematical discourse. Nevertheless, ante rem structuralists are inevitably...

A gene catalogue of the amphioxus nervous system.

The elaboration of extremely complex nervous systems is a major success of evolution. However, at the dawn of the post-genomic era, few data have helped yet to unravel how a nervous system develops and evolves to complexity. On...

Membrane Interactions and Toxicity by Misfolded Protein Oligomers.
The conversion of otherwise soluble proteins into insoluble amyloid aggregates is associated with a range of neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, as well as non-neuropathic conditions such...

Should different countries participating in PISA interpret socioeconomic background in the same way? A measurement invariance approach
It has been claimed that there is a lack of theory-driven constructs and a lack of cross-country comparability in International Large-Scale Assessment (ILSA)’s socio-economic background scales. To address these issues, a new...

Restricted Proliferation During Neurogenesis Contributes to Regionalisation of the Amphioxus Nervous System.
The central nervous system of the cephalochordate amphioxus consists of a dorsal neural tube with an anterior brain. Two decades of gene expression analyses in developing amphioxus embryos have shown that, despite apparent...

Methods for generating year-round access to amphioxus in the laboratory.
Cephalochordates, commonly known as amphioxus, are key to understanding vertebrate origins. However, laboratory work suffers from limited access to adults and embryonic material. Here we report the design and experimental...

On the nature and function of organizers.
Organizers, which comprise groups of cells with the ability to instruct adjacent cells into specific states, represent a key principle in developmental biology. The concept was first introduced by Spemann and Mangold, who showed...

Using self-adaptive optimisation methods to perform sequential optimisation for low-energy building design
The use of software tools to aid building design, or to show compliance, is now commonplace. This has motivated investigations into the potential of optimisation algorithms, used in such software, to automatically optimise...

Electronic Origin of α″ to β Phase Transformation in Ti-Nb-Based Thin Films upon Hf Microalloying.
We present results on thin Ti-Nb-based films containing Hf at various concentrations grown by magnetron sputtering. The films exhibit α" patterns at Hf concentrations up to 11 at.%, while at 16 at.% Hf, the β-phase emerges as a...

Multi-Class Cost-Constrained Random Coding for Correlated Sources over the Multiple-Access Channel.
This paper studies a generalized version of multi-class cost-constrained random-coding ensemble with multiple auxiliary costs for the transmission of N correlated sources over an N-user multiple-access channel. For...

Wnt/ß-catenin signalling and the dynamics of fate decisions in early mouse embryos and embryonic stem (ES) cells
tWnt/ß-catenin signalling is a widespread cell signalling pathway with multiple roles during vertebrate development. In mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells, there is a dual role for ß-catenin: it promotes differentiation when...

The structure of Wntch signalling and the resolution of transition states in development
During development, the emergence of different cell fates and their patterning into tissues and organs requires spatio-temporal coordination that controls the relative number of different cell types. Genetic analyses in...

Information-Theoretic Foundations of Mismatched Decoding
Shannon’s channel coding theorem characterizes the maximal rate of information that can be reliably transmitted over a communication channel when optimal encoding and decoding strategies are used. In many scenarios, however...

Optical Fiber Sensors
Fiber‐optic technology emerged originally for applications in data transmission and telecommunications. However, sensors based on fiber‐optics have been developed rapidly because of their excellent sensing performances and...
