Art and science: Intersections of art and science ... - EMBO reports
Dec 27, 2018 · Art and science have coexisted, often indistinguishable from each other, across time and space. A wealth of early documented examples comes from the Islamic culture, where art and science joined in intricate star‐shaped architectural geometries, and the use of “Nur” (light) and material science to design utensils and lettering in manuscripts 2.

How plants manage pathogen infection | EMBO reports
Dec 19, 2023 · Many foliar pathogens invade plants through stomata, pores in the epidermis of aerial tissues, which control gas exchange and water balance (Lin et al, 2022).Plants have evolved stomatal immunity that closes stomata upon pathogen infection via recognition of MAMPs, thereby restricting pathogen entry into leaf inner tissues (Melotto et al, 2006).In recent years, researchers have identified a ...
A guidebook for DISCO tissue clearing - Molecular Systems Biology
Mar 26, 2021 · Lastly, hydrophobic or solvent‐based clearing methods rely on organic solvents to render the tissues transparent. While this approach dates back to Spalteholz’ protocol described in 1911, it did not draw much attention at the time with the exception of a few publications elaborating on the method (Dent et al, 1989; Klymkowsky & Hanken, 1991).It later re‐emerged with 3D imaging of solvent ...
About - The EMBO Journal
Dec 16, 2024 · The EMBO Journal encourages applying due care in interpreting bibliometric measures such as CiteScore, h5-Index and Journal Impact Factor among others. EMBO Press is a foundation signatory of the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment pointing to flaws in the Journal Impact Factor, particularly in its application to the assessment of the research output of individuals.
Fermentation for future food systems: - EMBO reports
Apr 27, 2021 · The growing human population and global warming pose an impending threat for global food security (Linder, 2019).This has prompted a critical re‐examination of the food supply chain from producers to consumers in order to increase the overall efficiency of food production, storage and transport.
RNA ‐based medicine: from molecular mechanisms to therapy
Sep 20, 2023 · The notion of RNA as a regulatory molecule in eukaryotic cells took hold in 1993, when Victor Ambros, Gary Ruvkun and colleagues identified lin‐4 as a regulator of Caenorhabditis elegans development (Lee et al, 1993; Wightman et al, 1993).Curiously, lin‐4 did not encode a protein, but expressed a precursor RNA that is processed into a short, double‐stranded RNA.
The responsibility of the scientist: - EMBO reports
The German chemist Fritz Haber (1868–1934) was born in Breslau into a Jewish merchant family. At the age of 30 he became Associate Professor of Technical Chemistry at Karlsruhe University in Germany, at which he and Carl Bosch developed the so‐called ‘Haber–Bosch’ process to synthesize ammonia from hydrogen and atmospheric nitrogen.
Replicates and repeats—what is the difference and is it significant?:
The second major problem is that the calculations of P and statistical significance are based on the SE of replicates, but the ten replicates in any of the four conditions were each made from a single suspension of bone marrow cells from just one mouse. As such, we can at best infer a statistically significant difference between the concentration of colony‐forming cells in …
Molecular mechanisms and physiological functions of mitophagy
Jan 13, 2021 · The autophagic system targets impaired mitochondria and delivers them to lysosomes for degradation. This catabolic process, called mitophagy, contributes to maintaining mitochondrial quality control (Pickles et al, 2018) and mitochondrial quantity in multiple cell types.In tissues consuming a large amount of ATP such as brain, skeletal muscle, heart, liver, and kidney, mitochondria are highly ...
