Reviewing the Ethics and Philosophy Behind Social Media's Crowdsourced Panopticon
Amanda Furiasse
Jan 01, 2022
Philosopher Jeremy Weissman theorizes a new approach to social media surveillance by utilizing a familiar theoretical model: the Panopticon. In effect, Weissman argues that social media has transformed ordinary people into...

A Sensory Complex Consisting of an ATP-Binding-Cassette Transporter and a Two-Component Regulatory System Controls Bacitracin Resistance in <em>Bacillus subtilis</em>
Resistance against antimicrobial peptides in many Firmicutes bacteria is mediated by detoxification systems that are composed of a two-component regulatory system (TCS) and an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter. The...

The two faces of EU–NATO cooperation
Maritime engagement in the Gulf of Aden is a puzzling case for anyone interested in the political and institutional problems underlying European Union–North Atlantic Treaty Organization (EU–NATO) cooperation. Although the EU’s...
Genetic Optimisation of Bacteria-Induced Calcite Precipitation in <i>Bacillus subtilis</i>
Background
Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is an ancient property of bacteria, which has recently gained considerable attention for biotechnological applications. It occurs as a by-product of bacterial...

Transporters as information processors in bacterial signalling pathways
Transporters are essential players in bacterial growth and survival, since they are key for uptake of nutrients on the one hand, and for defence against endogenous and environmental stresses on the other hand. Remarkably, in...
Identification of Regions Important for Resistance and Signalling within the Antimicrobial Peptide Transporter BceAB of <em>Bacillus subtilis</em>
In the low-G+C-content Gram-positive bacteria, resistance to antimicrobial peptides is often mediated by so-called resistance modules. These consist of a two-component system and an ATP-binding cassette transporter and are...

Aerobic non-ureolytic bacteria-based self-healing cementitious composites
The use of bacteria for self-healing cement-based materials has shown great potential in recent years. Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a novel technology that relies on the metabolic activity of...

Incorporation of bacteria in concrete
Strength improvement of cement-based materials by the addition of bacteria has been reported over the past decade and has been mainly attributed to microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP 1). However, the...
