Eukaryotic cells face the challenging task of transporting a variety of particles through the
complex intracellular milieu in order to deliver, distribute, and mix the many components that …

The slime mould Physarum polycephalum, an aneural organism, uses information from
previous experiences to adjust its behaviour, but the mechanisms by which this is …

The higher-order interactions of complex systems, such as the brain, are captured by their
simplicial complex structure and have a significant effect on dynamics. However, the existing …

The concept of memory is traditionally associated with organisms possessing a nervous
system. However, even very simple organisms store information about past experiences to …

Simplicial complexes constitute the underlying topology of interacting complex systems
including among the others brain and social interaction networks. They are generalized …

The transport of fluids at the nanoscale has achieved major breakthroughs over recent
years,,–; however, artificial channels still cannot match the efficiency of biological porins in …

The slime mould Physarum polycephalum has been used in develo** unconventional
computing devices for in which the slime mould played a role of a sensing, actuating, and …

A substrate does not have to be solid to compute. It is possible to make a computer purely
from a liquid. I demonstrate this using a variety of experimental prototypes where a liquid …

Complex behaviors are typically associated with animals, but the capacity to integrate
information and function as a coordinated individual is also a ubiquitous but poorly …

Understanding and controlling transport through complex media is central for a plethora of
processes ranging from technical to biological applications. Yet, the effect of micro-scale …
