University of Colorado Boulder researchers have made a breakthrough in understanding how the ornate boxfish gets its unique pattern of hexagonal spots and stripes. The team focused on a mechanism called diffusiophoresis, which refers to the concentration and clumping together of molecules in response to a concentration gradient of a separate chemical. By incorporating diffusiophoresis into mathematician Alan Turing’s theory of pattern formation, the researchers discovered that the movement of molecules created sharp outlines, in contrast to the fuzzy spots that Turing’s theory alone would produce. This suggests that diffusiophoresis, along with the diffusion of chemical agents, pulls pigment cells…

Title: Polish Truckers Stage Border Protests to Challenge EU Agreement with Ukraine Polish truckers have taken to blocking border crossings with Ukraine in protest against a recent European Union (EU) deal that allows easier access for Ukrainian drivers into the bloc.

Prior to the deal, limits were in place due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The Polish transport industry is alarmed by…
