Abstract I will begin with the act of translation, in the most common sense of the term: moving from one language to another. I will outline its history in the Western world, following the Routes of Translation . Then I will “explore” translation—in all …

Abstract How do microbial communities shape soils, oceans, and food webs? Current methods allow us to describe their diversity and abundance and to identify networks of interactions. However, they struggle to determine the mechanisms and functions that …

Abstract The simplest mathematical models assume “homogeneous mixing,” in which each individual has the same probability of coming into contact with any other individual in the population. In practice, this assumption is often challenged because contacts …
