Fingerprints as Frozen Nematic Fields

Lorna Merrett, Kimia Witte

This paper applies topological principles to fingerprint patterns, showing they follow a nematic field model with topological constraints.

Differential receptor activation defines the fundamental limit of chemotactic sensing

Adam Dowdell, David Jordan, Kimia Witte

The paper shows that cells can detect chemotactic gradients with a minimal differential receptor activation of 0.026%, challenging the traditional ΔC framework.
