Proteins are synthesized within cells by ribosomes, and their functionality depend on the correct three-dimensional structure obtained through the process of folding. While the classical understanding of protein folding primarily focused on postsynthesisfolding, recent research has shifted its emphasis toward unraveling the intricacies of folding during synthesis.

Gravity waves (GWs) are one of the most important drivers of middle atmospheric circulations and strongly affect the polar vortex of the winter hemisphere. These waves are of comparatively small horizontal scales and are generated by a multitude of processes, of which wind flow over orography and convection are the most common. [...]

Our goal is to better understand the working mechanisms of biologicalneural systems. To this end, describing neural systems as networksprovides a powerful and widely-used analysis approach. [...]

The recording of a detailed diffraction pattern, as a function of scan position, was enabled in scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), thus giving rise to momentum-resolved STEM (MR-STEM). Whereas this technique provides a new framework for atomically-resolved quantitative analysis based on low-angle scattering, it also offers an opportunity to investigate single contributions to the intensity distribution in reciprocal space..
