TIMEWISE: Temporal Dynamics for Urban Resilience: Theoretical insights and empirical reflections from Amsterdam and Mumbai

Increasing frequency of climate-related disruptions requires transformational responses over the lifecycles of interconnected urban systems with short- and long-term change dynamics. However, the aftermath of disruptions is often characterised by short-sighted decision-making, neglecting long-term urban shifts. In this study, we present a...

Essential validation methods for E. coli strains created by chromosome engineering

Background Chromosome engineering encompasses a collection of homologous recombination-based techniques that are employed to modify the genome of a model organism in a controlled fashion. Such techniques are widely used in both fundamental and industrial research to introduce multiple insertions in the same Escherichia coli strain. To date, ?...
