Kavli Affiliate: Dwight Bergles | Authors: Dominique Meyer, Grant Kroeschell, Xiankun Lu, Linh Hoang, Haochen Wang, Shuying Li, Yu Kang T Xu, Lei Tan, Jeff S Mumm, Dwight E Bergles and Ji Yi | Summary: There is an increasing need for large-scale high-speed volumetric recording in complex multi-cellular model systems to define dynamic processes. Oblique […]
Kavli Affiliate: Boris I. Shraiman | Summary:A constitutive relation between stress and strain relative to a reference state is the basic assumption of elasticity theory. However, in living matter, force generation is governed by motor molecule activity, which does not depend on deformation relative to a reference. A different approach is needed to describe how […]
Kavli Affiliate: Boris I. Shraiman | Summary:A constitutive relation between stress and strain relative to a reference state is the basic assumption of elasticity theory. However, in living matter, stress is governed by (motor molecule) activity rather than a constitutive law. What paradigm takes the place of elasticity in this setting? Here, we derive a […]

Kavli Affiliate: Seth Blackshaw | Authors: Kurt Weir, Pin Lyu, Sangeetha Kandoi, Roujin An, Nicole Pannullo, Isabella Palazzo, Jared Tangeman, Jun Shi, Steven DeVries, Dana Merriman, Jiang Qian and Seth Blackshaw | Summary: Evolutionary adaptation to diurnal vision in ground squirrels has led to the development of a cone-dominant retina, in stark contrast to the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Seth Blackshaw | Authors: Nicole Pannullo, Debarpita Datta, Clayton Santiago, Jared Tangeman, Lizhi Jiang, Leighton Duncan and Seth Blackshaw | Summary: Temporal patterning of retinal progenitor cells governs the sequential generation of retinal cell types, with gliogenesis occurring late in development. Sox8 and Sox9, members of the SoxE transcription factor family, are highly […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kohei Inayoshi | Summary:Transient astronomy in the early Universe (z > 2) remains largely unexplored, lying beyond the rest-frame optical spectroscopic reach of most current observatories. Yet this regime promises transformative insights, with high-redshift transients providing direct access to the early Universe and enabling studies of how stellar populations and cosmology evolve over […]

Kavli Affiliate: David W. Miller | Summary:Real-time data filtering and selection — or trigger — systems at high-throughput scientific facilities such as the experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) must process extremely high-rate data streams under stringent bandwidth, latency, and storage constraints. Yet these systems are typically designed as static, hand-tuned menus of selection […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ali Javey | Summary:Optical spectroscopy based on second-order nonlinearity is a critical technique for characterizing two-dimensional (2D) crystals as well as bioimaging and quantum optics. It is generally believed that second-harmonic generation (SHG) in centrosymmetric crystals, such as graphene and other bilayer 2D crystals, is negligible without externally breaking the inversion symmetry. Here, […]
