Organic–Inorganic Interface Simulation for New Material Discoveries
An overview of the viability of different molecular simulation methods and interface force fields, the recent advances in the simulation of protein-surface interactions, and the challenges posed by the current simulation methods to reproduce the exact phenomenon.
Go with the Flow: Protecting Undervalued Ecosystems
Temporary rivers fluctuate between flowing, pool and dry states, making their instream habitats more dynamic and variable than those in equivalent rivers with year-round flow.
Cloud Feedback Mechanisms in Global Climate Models
Clouds have a remarkable impact on Earth’s climate.
Imaging Mass Spectrometry for Metabolites of Biological Interactions
Applying mature imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) or combining IMS with other imaging techniques to analyze biological interactions builds a bridge between physiology and ecology and creates a more complete depiction of nature.
Virtual Endovascular Treatment of Intracranial Aneurysms: Models and Uncertainty
Virtual endovascular treatment models (VETMs) have been developed with the view to aid interventional neuroradiologists and neurosurgeons to pre-operatively analyse the comparative efficacy and safety of endovascular treatments for intracranial aneurysms. Current deterministic computational simulations need to be extended with strategies for uncertainty mitigation, uncertainty exploration, and sensitivity reduction techniques.
Systems Biology of Cellular Membranes: a Convergence with Biophysics
Cellular membranes are omnipresent in cells, and are involved in numerous biological functions. Recognizing the intricate relationship between membrane biophysics and cellular processes is a key step towards a systemic understanding of cell biology.
Hybridization of Magnetic Nanomaterials: An Advanced Nanoplatform for Diagnosis and Treatment
Magnetic hybrid nanomaterials combining magnetic nanomaterials and extra functional nanocomponents not only exhibit magnetic properties but also act as important biomedical agents.
Nanophotonic Trapping: Precise Manipulation and Measurement of Biomolecular Arrays
A new review highlights progress in nanophotonic optical trapping and manipulation technologies with a focus on high-throughput applications in the biosciences.
Drone Flying is a New Method for Monitoring River Habitats
Monitoring the quality and distribution of physical habitat parameters in rivers, such as water depth, grain size and flow velocity, is vital for species survival.
