In an unlikely pairing, a chemist and an astrophysicist applied the tools of statistical mechanics to find similarities in spatial patterns across length scales. In late 2021, Salvatore Torquato, on ...

Many complex systems, from microbial communities to mussel beds to drylands, display striking self-organized clusters. According to theoretical models, these groupings play an important role in how an ...

Our thoughts are specified by our knowledge and plans, yet our cognition can also be fast and flexible in handling new information.

Spatial biology is the study of the spatial organization of biological systems. It has immense clinical applications in disease diagnosis and treatment. By analyzing the spatial arrangement of cells ...

Spatial transcriptomics (ST) technologies reveal the spatial organization of gene expression in tissues, providing critical insights into ...

Spatial biology is an exciting and rapidly growing field that explores how cells, molecules, and tissues are organized and interact within their natural environments. Instead of just looking at ...

A research team introduces a hierarchical Bayesian spatial approach that integrates UAV and terrestrial LiDAR data to ...

A new tool developed by Helmholtz Munich and the German Center for Diabetes Research and the University of Bonn makes spatial proteomics and lipidomics easier to use – no coding required. C-COMPASS ...
