Research on the interactions between the field voles (Microtus agrestis) of Kielder Forest and their natural parasites dates back to the 1930s. These early studies were primarily concerned with understanding how parasites shape the characteristic cyc... Read More about Host-parasite biology in the real world : the field voles of Kielder.

Chromosomal replication dynamics and interaction with the β sliding clamp determine orientation of bacterial transposable elements (2014)
Journal Article
Gomez, M., Díaz-Maldonado, H., Gonzalez Tortuero, E., & López de Saro, F. (2014). Chromosomal replication dynamics and interaction with the β sliding clamp determine orientation of bacterial transposable elements. Genome Biology and Evolution, 6(3), 727-740. https://doi.org/10.1093/gbe/evu052

Insertion sequences (ISs) are small transposable elements widespread in bacterial genomes, where they play an essential role in chromosome evolution by stimulating recombination and genetic flow. Despite their ubiquity, it is unclear how ISs interact...

Silicon nanophotonics integration for chip-scale optical communication (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We will describe recent work in the area of integrated nanophotonics that have applications to on chip communication. In this context we will present passive filters and resonators produced through periodic waveguide modulation. We will also demonstr...

Asymmetric contacts or split gate geometries can be used to obtain rectification, electroluminescence (EL) and photocurrent from carbon nanotube field effect transistors. Here, we report devices with both split gates and asymmetric contacts and show... Read More about Split gate and asymmetric contact carbon nanotube optical devices.

Polyspecific associations are commonly observed in social animals, including primates, and have been interpreted as adaptations either to improve access to resources or to provide protection against predators. Mixed-species associations between Wied'... Read More about Mixed-species groups of marmosets and Tamarins across a gradient of agroforestry intensification.

Fault detection and isolation for an active wheelset control system (2014)
Journal Article
