Diffusion and reactions are central to understanding life. However, studies often focus on dilute systems, while the interior of living cells is crowded with macromolecules that occupy about 20 % to 40 % of the cell volume, affecting virtually all intracellular processes [1]. In this talk, I will mainly focus on diffusion, emphasising the effects significant to crowded intracellular environments, such as polydispersity of crowders [2], macromolecular shapes, interactions [3], and softness [4]. We will also briefly discuss how reactions proceed under crowding, paying particular attention to enzymatic reactions [5] and the cooperativity of divalent binding [6].

The environment is having a massive impact on music, changing what music is and how it comes to be, not just what it is about or how it sounds. In this lecture, Dr. Kyle Devine, professor of musicology at UiO, presents the nuances in this Great Recomposition, and the importance of overriding our defaults.

In 80s Weibel observed that K-theory is homotopy invariant on F_p-schemes up to p-torsion. His main tool was the action of the ring Witt vectors on nil-K-groups: NK_i(R) = Ker(K_i(R[t]) ¡ú K_i(R)). We will revisit the proof and check that the same result holds for all finitary localizing invariants.
