The synapse is a crucial element in biological neural networks, but a simple electronic
equivalent has been absent. This complicates the development of hardware that imitates …

The discovery of carbon‐based quantum dots (CQDs) has allowed opportunities for
fluorescence bioimaging, tumor diagnosis and treatment, and photo‐/electro‐catalysis …

Just a few decades ago, chemical oscillations were thought to be exotic reactions of only
theoretical interest. Now known to govern an array of physical and biological processes …

The plasmodium of the slime mould Physarum polycephalum is a large amoeba-like cell
consisting of a dendritic network of tube-like structures (pseudopodia). It changes its shape …

Chemical reactions with nonlinear kinetic behavior can give rise to a remarkable set of
spatiotemporal phenomena. These include periodic and chaotic changes in concentration …

We present an algorithm which returns a shortest path and related number of entanglements
for a given configuration of a polymeric system in 2 or 3 dimensions. Rubinstein and …

Leveraging the motion and force of individual molecular motors in a controlled manner to
perform macroscopic tasks can provide substantial benefits to many applications, including …

Droplets emitting surface-active chemicals exhibit chemotaxis toward low-pH regions. Such
droplets are self-propelled and navigate through a complex maze to seek a source of acid …

We review experimental and theoretical studies on the design and control of spatiotemporal
behavior in chemical systems. A wide range of approaches have been pursued to control …

We have studied how the plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum, a large amoeboid cell, is
able to track the shortest path between two selected points in a labyrinth. When nutrients are …
