Boundaries control active channel flows

Boundary conditions dictate how fluids, including liquid crystals, flow when pumped through a channel.Can boundary conditions also be used to control internally driven active fluids that generate flows spontaneously? By using numerical simulations and stability analysis we explore how Water Cups parallel surface anchoring of active agents at the bo

Chromatin dynamics at the maternal to zygotic transition: recent advances from the zebrafish model [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Early animal development is characterized by intense reorganization of the embryonic genome, including large-scale changes in chromatin structure and in the DNA and histone Combination Oven Accessories modifications that help shape this structure.Particularly profound shifts in the chromatin landscape are associated with the maternal-to-zygotic tra
