Anterior expansion and posterior addition to the notochord mechanically coordinate zebrafish embryo axis elongation.
How force generated by the morphogenesis of one tissue impacts the morphogenesis of other tissues to achieve an elongated embryo axis is not well understood. The notochord runs along the length of the somitic compartment and is...

Optimal strategies to protect a sub-population at risk due to an established epidemic.
Epidemics can particularly threaten certain sub-populations. For example, for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the elderly are often preferentially protected. For diseases of plants and animals...
Mutational signatures
Mutational signatures provide a powerful alternative for understanding the pathophysiology of cancer. Currently, experimental efforts aimed at validating and understanding the etiologies of cancer-derived mutational signatures...

An ecophysiological model of plant-pest interactions
Empirical studies have shown that particular irrigation/fertilization regimes can reduce pest populations in agroecosystems. This appears to promise that the ecological concept of bottom-up control can be applied to pest...
Holistic cancer genome profiling for every patient.
Technological advances in the ability to read the human genome have accelerated the speed of sequencing, such that today we can perform whole genome sequencing (WGS) in one day. Until recently, genomic studies have largely been...
Modelling quantitative fungicide resistance and breakdown of resistant cultivars
Plant pathogens respond to selection pressures exerted by disease management strategies. This can lead to fungicide resistance and/or the breakdown of disease-resistant cultivars, each of which significantly threaten food...

How the epidemiology of disease-resistant and disease-tolerant varieties affects grower behaviour.
Population-scale effects of resistant or tolerant crop varieties have received little consideration from epidemiologists. When growers deploy tolerant crop, population-scale disease pressures are often unaffected. This only...
Using 'sentinel' plants to improve early detection of invasive plant pathogens.
Infectious diseases of plants present an ongoing and increasing threat to international biosecurity, with wide-ranging implications. An important challenge in plant disease management is achieving early detection of invading...

When Does Spatial Diversification Usefully Maximize the Durability of Crop Disease Resistance?
Maximizing the durability of crop disease resistance genes in the face of pathogen evolution is a major challenge in modern agricultural epidemiology. Spatial diversification in the deployment of resistance genes, where...
