Stochasticity in gene expression is manifested as fluctuations in the abundance of expressed molecules at the single-cell level, and variability and heterogeneity within populations of genetically ...

Evolutionary biologists, systematists, and paleontologists commonly have invoked deterministic explanations for certain patterns of diversity. However, few authors have considered the null model that ...

Although it is well-known that dispersal of organisms within a metacommunity will influence patterns of coexistence and richness, theoretical and experimental studies generally assume that dispersal ...

A team of quantitative biology researchers from Northwestern Engineering and the Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences has uncovered new insights into the impact of stochasticity in gene expression, ...

Stochasticity (a wonderfully slippery and smarty-pants word for randomness), may be at the very foundation of our lives. To understand how big a role it plays, we look at chance and patterns in sports ...

Scientists have shown in theoretical models of turbulence that even molecular motions can create large-scale patterns of randomness over a defined period of time. We experience turbulence every day: a ...
