Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
The (w)hole story
Dissipative structures are governed by non-equilibrium thermodynamics. Here, we describe a size-dependent transition of active droplets into active spherical shells–a dissipative structure that originates from reaction-diffusion gradients.
A Step Forward or a Step Back in Overcoming the Research-Practice Gap? Questioning Central Assumptions of the ICAP Framework
The interactive-constructive-active-passive (ICAP) framework classifies students' behavior into modes of engagement and hypothesizes that teachers and researchers can infer from behavior whether they are likely to learn. We argue that this assumption is problematic.
Understanding the Time-Varying Complex Networks: A Geometric Approach
Understanding the time varying complex networks (TVCNs) is not just an intellectual pursuit but also holds the key to understanding their fundamental laws and phase transitions and enable the design of efficient control strategies and enhancing our predictive capabilities of their evolution.
