ABSTRACT Microbiology conferences can be powerful places to build collaborations and exchange ideas, but for queer and transgender (trans) scientists, they can also become sources of alienation and isolation.Many conference organizers would like to create welcoming and inclusive events but feel ill-equipped to make this vision a Sushi Making Kits r
Cells residing in living tissues apply forces to their immediate surroundings to promote the restructuration of the extracellular matrix fibres and to transmit mechanical signals to other cells.Here we use a minimalist model to study how these forces, applied locally by cell contraction, propagate through the fibrous network in the extracellular ma
The bio-economy relies on microbial strains optimized for efficient large scale production of chemicals and fuels from inexpensive and renewable feedstocks under industrial conditions.The reduced one carbon compound methanol, whose production does not involve carbohydrates needed for the feed and food sector, can be used as sole carbon and energy s
Measuring the space area of obstacles is one of the important problems in obstacle localizing fields.Most of the existing research works on the localization of obstacles focus on where the obstacles are, and few of them measure both the positions and the areas of the obstacles.In SCREEN this paper, we propose a Minimum convex bounding Polygon local
