Abstract: Many biological decision-making tasks require classifying high-dimensional chemical states. The biophysical and computational mechanisms that enable classification remain enigmatic. In this work, using Markov jump processes as an abstraction of general biochemical networks, we reveal… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/plants8010017
Abstract: Cells of algae, fungi, and plants have walls and exhibit expansive growth which can increase their volume by as much as 10,000 times. Expansive growth is central to their morphogenesis, development, and sensory responses to… read more here.
