Stress and deformation of thin films and patterned lines on substrates
… selection and design optimization. Coherent gradient sensing (CGS), an optical, full-field and vibration-insensitive experimental method, is used to study large deformation behavior of thin film-substrate systems by measuring the gradient of out-of-plane displacement of deformed surfaces. …

A Mechanism for Spatial Orientation Based on Sensory Adaptation in Caenorhabditis Elegans
… animals compute spatial information about odor gradients to make navigational choices for finding or avoiding an odor source. The challenge to the neural circuitry is to interpret and respond to odor concentrations that change over time as animals traverse a gradient. In this thesis, I ask how a …

Mechanisms of Gradient Tracking During Yeast Mating
… proficient at tracking even shallow chemical gradients, despite tiny differences in receptor occupancy across the cell. Stochastic receptor-ligand interactions introduce considerable noise in instantaneous receptor occupancy, so it is thought that spatial information must be integrated over …
