Boolean Modelingof Genetic Regulatory Networks
Biological systems form complex networks of interaction on several scales, ranging from the molecular to the ecosystem level. On the subcellular...

Information Dynamics in the Networked World
We review three studies of information flow in social networks that help reveal their underlying social structure, how information spreads among them...
-
Classes of the Shortest Pathway Structures in Scale Free Networks
We study a problem of data packet transport between a pair of vertices on scale-free network, and introduce load of a vertex as the accumulated sum...

Course 8: Equilibrium States and Dynamics of Equilibration: General Issues and Open Questions
Equilibrium states and the dynamics of equilibration are reviewed with emphasis on general issues and open questions. Macroscopic systems with...

Role of NAADP in Coordinating Spatiotemporal Aspects of Calcium Signalling
We outline the roles of two low molecular weight phosphorylated compounds as intracellular messengers in calcium signaling. These new intracellular...
-
Clustering in Complex Networks
Real, mostly socially rooted networks have the tendency to form the simplest morphological structures observable: triangles, or in other words...

Emergence of Complexity in Financial Networks
We present here a brief summary of the various possible applications of network theory in the field of finance. Since we want to characterize...
-
Characteristics of Biological Networks
Network principles describe uniformly systems as diverse as the cell or the Internet. The emergence of these networks is driven by self-organizing...

The Optimal Pathin an Erdős-Rényi Random Graph
We study the optimal distance $\ell_{\mbox{\scriptsize opt}}$ in...

Course 3: Structural Relaxation and Rheology of Soft Condensed Matter
These lectures address the relation between structural dynamics and macroscopic flow behaviour (rheology) in soft condensed matter. After a brief...

Building a Wave – Models of the Puff-to-Wave Transition
Ca2+ release channels open and close randomly because of random binding and dissociation of Ca2+ and IP3 to their subunits. They are arranged in...
-
Course 13: Self-organized Criticality in Granular Superconductors
We study the critical state of a one-dimensional granular superconductor (multijunction SQUID with random arrangement of junctions) in an increasing...

The Endoplasmic Reticulum: A Central Player in Cell Signalling and Protein Synthesis
In addition to being the principle intracellular Ca 2+ store, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the initial site of synthesis and folding of membrane...
-
Global and Local Regulation of Neuronal Differentiation by Calcium Transients
Embryonic spinal neurons express ion channels prior to synaptogenesis that mediate specialized forms of excitability promoting Ca 2+ influx. Ca 2+...

Mitochondrial and ER Calcium Uptake and Release Fluxes and their Interplay in Intact Nerve Cells
Ionized free Ca ( Ca 2+) is a ubiquitous signaling ion that serves as the critical link between a variety of physiological stimuli and their...

Course 16: Dynamic Transitions in Thermal and Athermal Systems
Dynamic transitions from a fluid to a solid-like state occur in a wide variety of physical systems. In this article, we discuss the notion that...

Course 4: Granular Media: Some Ideas from Statistical Physics
These lecture notes cover the statics and glassy dynamics of granular media. Most of the lectures were in fact devoted to “force propagation” models....

Course 9: Experimental Analysis of Aging
Several experimental aspects of the aging dynamics are discussed. We first introduce the general features of aging. We then describe several...
