The sizes of living organisms range over twenty orders magnitude. Within the same species, size individuals also varies according to environmental conditions which they are subjected. From studies conducted on as diverse drosophila, salamander or mouse, laws and conserved mechanisms emerge that shed light fundamental aspects growth, but more medical issues such tissue regeneration, metabolic ho...

Both educators and journalists have a role to play in communicating the achievements of science, but scientists must recognize that we have a responsibility to increase the availability and sa...

The aim of this thesis is to develop sources of photonic entanglement to study both quantum networkingtasks and some of the foundations of quantum physics. To this end, three high-performance sourcesare developed, each of them taking extensively advantage of standard telecom fibre optics components.The first source generates polarization entanglement via deterministic pair separatio...
