Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Greenhouse gas emissions from natural gas pipeline incidents
Our research consortium conducted a study quantifying GHG emissions from natural gas pipeline incidents in the United States and Canada from the 1980s to 2021, using Monte Carlo simulation methods.
Importance of Pacific oceanic front for the North Atlantic blocking
Recent studies have examined the local impact of the Gulf Stream front on North Atlantic blocking. In this study we used semi-idealized atmospheric-only experiments to identify the additional crucial role of the Kuroshio Extension front in setting the climatological North Atlantic blocking activity.
Extreme weather events and scientific research in the Anthropocene epoch
The catastrophic flood which dramatically affected last May a large area of Emilia-Romagna region, in northern Italy, reminds us once again of the Italian territory's intrinsic fragility.
Gene expression tuning made easy
Have you ever wished to tune endogenous gene expression? Wait no longer.
In this “Behind the paper” blog post, I will present you our new toolkit, CasTuner, which is specifically designed to tune endogenous gene expression. I will summarize how CasTuner works, how to and why you should use it.
