Researchers of FOM Institute AMOLF and Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire de Physique in Grenoble (France) have shown that the evolution of bacteria can be accelerated when their environment fluctuates in time. The research …
Onderzoekers van FOM-instituut AMOLF en Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire de Physique in Grenoble (Frankrijk) hebben ontdekt dat de evolutie van een bacterie versnelt als de leefomgeving veranderlijk is. Het onderzoek geeft een …
New 3D tracking technique “for the masses” reveals individuality of bacterial behavior
Microscopy techniques used to study the movement of swimming microbes are limited to two dimensions (2D) or require sophisticated devices. In a paper to be published online on 2 November, …
AMOLF postdoc Katja Taute (Systems Biology and Biophysics research groups) has won the award for outstanding postdoctoral talk at the BLAST XIII conference (13th International Conference on Bacterial Locomotion and …
Researchers from FOM institute AMOLF have discovered that metabolism, the process that converts molecules in a cell, proceeds irregularly. As metabolism is the motor that drives all biological activity in …
Researchers from FOM institute AMOLF have directly observed the misfolding of a protein chain. Protein chains are thought to fold into the wrong structure sometimes, and thus cause neurodegenerative diseases.
