How do adaptive immune systems control pathogens while avoiding autoimmunity?

Immune systems face a daunting control challenge. On the one hand, they need to minimize damage from pathogens, without wasting energy and resources, but on the other must avoid initiating or perpetuating autoimmune responses. Finally, because pathogens interfere with immune function, immune systems must be robust against sabotage. We describe here how these challenges are met by two immune sys...

Down the rabbit hole: how complex do eco-physiological models need to be?

Down the Large Rabbit Hole

This article documents my journey down the rabbit hole, chasing what I have come to know as a particularly unyielding problem in Ramsey theory on the integers: the 2-Large Conjecture. This conjecture states that if D ✓ Z+ has the property that every 2-coloring of Z+ admits arbitrarily long monochromatic arithmetic progressions with common di↵erence from D then the same property holds for any fi...

Combining cues while avoiding perceptual conflicts.

A common assumption in cue combination models is that small discrepancies between cues are due to the limited resolution of the individual cues. Whenever this assumption holds, information from the separate cues can best be combined to give a single, more accurate estimate of the property of interest. We examined whether information about the discrepancy itself is lost when this is done. In our...
