Cell Polarization: It's All about Being in Shape
In eukaryotic cells microtubules and actin filaments help to generate the spatial organization of the cytoplasm that is required for polarity and shape. Recent work in fission yeast demonstrates that changing cell shape in turn reorganizes the cytoskeleton and cell polarization machinery.
متن کاملShape from Mixed Polarization
Shape from Polarization (SfP) estimates surface normals using photos captured at different polarizer rotations. Fundamentally, the SfP model assumes that light is reflected either diffusely or specularly. However, this model is not valid for many real-world surfaces exhibiting a mixture of diffuse and specular properties. To address this challenge, previous methods have used a sequential soluti...
متن کاملBeing Realistic about Reasons
In my first lecture I listed seven questions about reasons that seemed to require answers. These were: Relational Character: Reasons are reasons for an agent. How is this relational character to be understood? Ground of Truth: In virtue of what are claims about reasons true, when they are true? Does the idea that claims about reasons are true or false, independent of our opinions about them, an...
متن کاملBeing Positive about Selection
H ow has language developed in humans and what genetic changes underlie our unique cognitive abilities? Accounts of positive selection that lead to such abilities in humans fascinate us because of the insight they provide into our own evolution, and into the many genetic differences that distinguish us from other apes. The genes that became fi xed in our lineage as a result of positive selectio...
متن کاملAll About
We explore the C2-equivariant spectra Tmf1(3) and TMF1(3). In particular, we compute their C2-equivariant Picard groups and the C2-equivariant Anderson dual of Tmf1(3). This implies corresponding results for the fixed point spectra TMF0(3) and Tmf0(3). Furthermore, we prove a Real Landweber exact functor theorem.
