The recognition that gene expression can be substantially stochastic poses the question of
how cells respond to dynamic environments using biochemistry that itself fluctuates. The …

Microbial regulatory strategies have long been understood in terms of the homeostatic
framework, in which a response is interpreted as a restoring force counteracting the …

Cells send and receive signals through pathways that have been defined in great detail
biochemically, and it is often presumed that the signals convey only level information. Cell …

In a diffusion-based molecular communication network, transmitters and receivers
communicate by using signalling molecules (or ligands) in a fluid medium. This paper …

Molecular communication is a promising approach to realize the communication between
nanoscale devices. In a diffusion-based molecular communication network, transmitters and …

Microscopic biological processes have extraordinary complexity and variety at the sub-
cellular, intra-cellular, and multi-cellular levels. In dealing with such complex phenomena …

Many studies have shown that cells use the temporal dynamics of signalling molecules to
encode information. One particular class of temporal dynamics is persistent and transient …

Specific interactions between receptors and their target ligands in the presence of nontarget
ligands are crucial for biological processes such as T cell ligand discrimination. To …

Many cellular processes involve information processing and decision making. We can probe
these processes at increasing molecular detail. The analysis of heterogeneous data remains …

The regulatory mechanisms in cellular signaling systems have been studied intensively from
the viewpoint that the malfunction of the regulation is thought to be one of the substantial …
