- 1Mathematical models used to unpick cellular communication▼Unpicking cellular communication with mathematical models
Researchers at the Wellcome Sanger Institute are using mathematical models to study how cells communicate with one another. By applying computational approaches to cellular signalling, the work aims to better understand the complex interactions that underpin healthy tissue and disease. The institute says such models can help interpret biological data at scale and reveal patterns not visible through experiments alone.
- 2New quantum chip uses quasiparticles to link distant qubits●New quantum chip taps into weird quasiparticles to get qubits to communicate over long distances
Researchers have unveiled a quantum chip that uses exotic quasiparticles to enable qubits to communicate over long distances, a persistent challenge in quantum computing since qubits typically interact only at very short ranges. The approach could help scale up quantum processors by allowing information to move reliably between distant parts of a machine, though details of the team's results and practical performance have not yet been widely reported.
