Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Turing patterns under a periodically forced feed
Alan Turing proposed one of the most influential theories of morphogenesis, in which a system of diffusive and reactive chemicals can produce stationary (and other types) spatial patterns. We explored the effect of periodic feeding of the reactive chemicals on pattern development and stabilty.
Losing the larval stage… one step at a time?
Amphibians have undergone important evolutionary transitions in reproductive modes and life-cycles. In our recent study, we compare large-scale macroevolutionary patterns in these transitions across the three major amphibian groups; frogs, salamanders and caecilians.
How future compound drought-heatwave events would affect our society and ecosystem?
By combining hydrology, vegetation remote sensing and atmospheric dynamics, we attempted to understand the shifts in compound hazards as well as their impacts on our socio-ecosystem.
Digging deeper: Dielectric Mie voids
We introduce voids in high-index materials as novel building blocks for nanophotonics, pushing the operational wavelength into the blue and UV spectral range.
