New model describes how reaction-diffusion networks develop 'foams'
Phys.org • 12/8/2025 • Last cited 12/14/2025
Summary
A new model has been developed to explain how reaction-diffusion networks contribute to the formation of protein patterns, which are crucial for various biological processes, according to Phys.org. The study highlights that these patterns, regulated by molecular switches, often exist far from equilibrium.
