Metrons and Logons brings together Matthew’s recent series of photographic works with display structures made by eva duerden. The images move between recognisable objects and architecturally processed surfaces, reminding us of objects we used to consider technical, while acknowledging their obsolescence. The longer one looks, the less clear that designation of time becomes.

Das Bakterium Chlamydia trachomatis ist weltweit einer der häufigsten Erreger sexuell übertragbarer Infektionen. Biologisch gilt es als hochspezialisierter „Nährstoffdieb“: Da Chlamydien die Fähigkeit zur eigenständigen Vermehrung außerhalb einer Wirtszelle verloren haben, kapern sie menschliche Stoffwechselprodukte – insbesondere Sphingolipide – für ihre eigene Entwicklung. In der Wirtszelle erschaffen sie sich ein abgeschirmtes Heim, die sogenannte Inklusion.

Woher stammen die heute rund 100 Arten der Stärlinge, und wie haben sie sich über Nord- und Südamerika ausgebreitet? Dr. Axel Arango Garcia und Professor Chaitanya S. Gokhale vom Lehrstuhl für Computational and Theoretical Biology (CCTB) der Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg (JMU) haben die Evolutionsgeschichte dieser Vogelfamilie rekonstruiert. Ihre Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Vorfahren der heutigen Arten höchstwahrscheinlich aus Nordamerika stammten und sich über Millionen von Jahren schrittweise nach Süden ausbreiteten.

Decision-making is often about identifying trade-offs. When considering the development of Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI), one of the trade-offs that might arise is between prioritising sovereignty and service stability.
