Cosmology in a cell: Defect annihilation in liquid crystals

AoS. Cosmology in a cell: Defect annihilation in liquid crystals

Topological defects are configurations of the order parameter which cannot be transformed continuously into a uniform state. They have been observed in various areas of physics, such as alloys, semiconductors, particle physics and cosmology. Due to the

Active role of cell-derived microparticles in diabetes associated cardiovascular complications

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose (or hyperglycaemia) resulting from defects in insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta cells, insulin action, or both. The chronic hyperglycaemia produces disturbances of carbohydrate, fat and
