Theoretical and computational modeling reveals a mechanism of active patterning of uniform isotropic actin gels into dense nematic bundles, providing a physical basis for the adaptability of the actin cytoskeleton.
Fireflies that gather in swarms synchronize their flashing with rhythmic periodicity and provide insights into a new mechanism for the emergence of synchrony and periodicity.
Classical antibody boosting effects during vaccination are accompanied by natural broadening mechanisms that help enable human antibodies to engage conserved sites of vulnerability on influenza virus.
