Biological pattern formation requires complex gene regulation networks and accurate cell-cell coordination. The reaction-diffusion (RD) based clock and wavefront model has been proposed as a mechanism involved in biological pattern formation of repeated and segmented structures. While RD driven pattern formation has been demonstrated in many systems,...

According to the World Health Organization, there are hundreds of millions of people suffering from chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs), including asthma, COPD, sleep apnea, pulmonary hypertension and more. Measuring and characterizing lung functionality is an essential step toward diagnosing, monitoring and treating these respiratory conditions. The...
