“Coupling Architectures of the Cellular Powerhouse to Energy Production States” The inner membrane of mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell, is highly folded, exhibiting intricate dynamical structures called cristae that are integral to a multitude of cellular processes, in particular bioenergetic demand. Abnormal cristae architectures are associated with many diseases, such as liver dysfunction. However,....
“Unraveling Conformations of High-genus Membranes” Our goal is to use and expand a multiscale simulation scheme to characterize the shape of high-genus membranes. Biomembranes are fundamental to our understanding of the cell, the basic building block of all life. An intriguing aspect of membranes is their ability to assume a variety of shapes, which is....
The element phosphorus is essential for all life on earth, and to maintain the intensive agriculture required to feed the world’s population, it is necessary to add phosphorus to the fertilizers that farmers use on their fields. The phosphorus used for fertilizer ends up as inorganic phosphate in wastewater via our food, or if it....

Modern and future ships use radio communications to support the local situational awareness and autonomity. Short- and long-term communication performance has a direct effect on how well the ship’s systems are able to utilize up-to-date information from other ships and land-based systems. Being able to predict the performance is crucial in supporting the ship to....
