The Bacterial Spore

The study of bacterial spores spans biosecurity to ecology The first articles describing the sporulation process were published by Robert Koch and Ferdinand Cohn in the late 19th century. Although most of the work accomplished in the past 50 years has focused on the model organism Bacillus subtilis, more recent work significantly expanded the scope of sporulation research to integrate medically relevant spore pathogens, such as B. anthracis and Clostridium difficile, as well as investigations of the ecology of spore-forming species. This new direction is supported by an explosion of novel techniques that can also be applied to nonmodel organisms, such as next-generation sequencing, metagenom...

More than Bricks in the Wall: Organizational Perspectives for Sustainable Success

This book illustrates different organizational perspectives for achieving sustainable corporate success. Its contributions cover a range of research areas that have been developed at Prof. Gilbert Probst's Chair of Organization and Management at the University of Geneva over the past twenty years. By analyzing current research questions and highlighting corresponding managerial challenges, this book provides a comprehensive view on corporate growth, change management, crisis management, knowledge management, and managing corporate boundaries.

Kin Recognition in Protists and Other Microbes

Kin Recognition in Protists and Other Microbes is the first volume dedicated entirely to the genetics, evolution and behavior of cells capable of discriminating and recognizing taxa (other species), clones (other cell lines) and kin (as per gradual genetic proximity). It covers the advent of microbial models in the field of kin recognition; the polymorphisms of green-beard genes in social amebas, yeast and soil bacteria; the potential that unicells have to learn phenotypic cues for recognition; the role of clonality and kinship in pathogenicity (dysentery, malaria, sleeping sickness and Chagas); the social and spatial structure of microbes and their biogeography; and the relevance of unicells’ cooperation, sociality and cheating for our understanding of the origins of multicellularity. Offering over 200 figures and diagrams, this work will appeal to a broad audience, including researchers in academia, postdoctoral fellows, graduate students and research undergraduates. Science writers and college educators will also find it informative and practical for teaching.

Coherent X-ray diffractive imaging on the single-cell-level of microbial samples

Since its first experimental demonstration in 1999, Coherent X-Ray Diffractive Imaging has become one of the most promising high resolution X-Ray imaging techniques using coherent radiation produced by brilliant synchrotron storage rings. The ability to directly invert diffraction data with the help of advanced algorithms has paved the way for microscopic investigations and wave-field analyses on the spatial scale of nanometres without the need for inefficient imaging lenses. X-Ray phase contrast which is a measure of the electron density is an important contrast mode of soft biological specimens. For the case of many dominant elements of soft biological matter, the electron density can be c...

The Three Pillars of Evolution Demolished

The Three Pillars of Evolution Demolished

The three pillars of evolution, defined as progression from simple molecules to humans, are the origin of life and genetic damage called mutations selected by natural selection. Dr. Bergman documents that the peer reviewed scientific literature has demolished these central pillars of evolution, specifically the origin of life from non-life and the source of genetic variety called mutations honed by natural selection. As genetic research of life has been shown to be increasingly more complex, life from nonlife by natural means is now no longer feasible. Furthermore, most all mutations are partly or wholly deleterious and natural selection serves primarily to reduce the deterioration of life, not evolve life to greater levels of complexity as evolution postulates. In short. the naturalistic evolutionary theory first expounded by Charles Darwin has been falsified by scientific research.

Point Particles to Capture Polarized Embryonic Cells & Cold Pools in the Atmosphere

Part 1: How are the incredible diversity and robustness compatible with animal morphologies? Based on apical-basal and planar cell polarities’ ubiquity, I suggest a 3D mathematical model: Point particles represent cells having zero, one, or two unit-arrows representing polarities. I test the model abilities on preimplantation development, sea urchin gastrulation, mammalian neurulation, organoid folding, and tubulogenesis. I find that a minimal, versatile toolbox, including cellular polarities, captures the emergence of diverse and robust animal morphologies. Part 2: How are deep convective events spatially organized in the tropical atmosphere? Here, I test the importance of atmospheric cold pools for organizing convection. I suggest a 2D mathematical model: Points expand into circles representing cold pools. When circles meet, a convective event occurs, and a new circle forms. I find this model captures convective scale increase and initial stages of convective self-aggregation. The latter is crucial due to its link to tropical cyclogenesis.
