Population-based microbial computing: a third wave of synthetic biology?

Synthetic biology is an emerging research field, in which engineering principles are applied to natural, living systems. A major goal of synthetic biology is to harness the inherent “biological nanotechnology” of living cells for the purposes of computation, production, or diagnosis. As the field evolves, it is gradually developing from a singlecell approach (akin to using standalone computers)...

Plant genomics: the third wave.

Completing the primary genomic sequence of Arabidopsis thaliana was a major milestone, being the first plant genome and only the third high-quality finished eukaryotic genome sequence. Understanding how the genome sequence comprehensively encodes developmental programs and environmental responses is the next major challenge for all plant genome projects. This requires fully characterizing the g...

HAN Enters the Third Wave

Is the Third Wave Over?

Since the overthrow of Portugal's dictatorial regime in April 1974, the number of democracies in the world has multiplied dramatically. Before the start of this global trend toward democracy, there were roughly 40 countries that could be classified as more or less democratic. The number increased moderately through the late 1970s and early 1980s as a number of states experienced transitions fro...

ACCA-UK/JP Third International Workshop

In this talk, we introduce that generic topological structures of global stream-line patterns generated by the complex velocity potentials of uniform flows and pointvortices are uniquely represented by labelled trees. Moreover, we show that topologicalstructures of generic surface flows can be represented by finite combinational structures.Finally, we discuss the relations betwe...
