Standing-up Vineyards : the political relevance of Tuscan wine production
This paper investigates the philosophical and political assumptions supporting the commonly held view of 'place identity', exemplarily represented by the Tuscany region in Italy and its wine. It focuses on the production process of one of the most expensive and highly rated Italian wines, the Brunello di Montalcino, produced in the southeast of Tus...
How can cells sense the elasticity of a substrate? : an analysis using a cell tensegrity model
A eukaryotic cell attaches and spreads on substrates, whether it is the extracellular matrix naturally produced by the cell itself, or artificial materials, such as tissue-engineered scaffolds. Attachment and spreading require the cell to apply forces in the nN range to the substrate via adhesion sites, and these forces are balanced by the elastic ...

Applying dimorphic yeasts as model organisms to study mycelial growth: part 2. Use of mathematical simulations to identi...
Published in Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering
The dimorphic yeasts Candida boidinii and Yarrowia lipolytica were applied as model organisms to study mycelial growth. A mathematical model of hybrid cellular automaton type was developed to analyze the impact of different biological assumptions on the predicted development of filamentous yeast colonies. The one-dimensional model described discret...

The Brain as a Distributed Intelligent Processing System: An EEG Study
Background: Various neuroimaging studies, both structural and functional, have provided support for the proposal that a distributed brain network is likely to be the neural basis of intelligence. The theory of Distributed Intelligent Processing Systems (DIPS), first developed in the field of Artificial Intelligence, was proposed to adequately model...
