The Construction of Minimal DNA Expressions
Abstract. We describe a formal language/notation for DNA molecules that may contain nicks and gaps. The elements of the language, DNA expressions, denote formal DNA molecules. Diff...

How crystals that sense and respond to their environments could evolve
An enduring mystery in biology is how a physical entity simple enough to have arisen spontaneously could have evolved into the complex life seen on Earth today. Cairns-Smith has pr...
