Marie Curie at 150 – Celebrating Women in STEM. I am a devoted scientist, a professor in STEM, particularly in biomedicine, and I also juggle my private life in parallel with my scientific career. I have two daughters, I have divorced from my first husband – a physicist – and remarried with another physicist with […]

Horatiu Nastase, author of String Theory Methods for Condensed Matter Physics, describes the differences between reductionist and emergent approaches to modern physics and presents the duality approach to help solve uncalculable problems in strong nuclear forces, fluids and condensed matter. Is this approach the bridge between fundamental and phenomenological physics?

Notes on Dimensional Analysis Dimensional analysis has the dubious reputation of being both utterly trivial and, at the same time, ineffective. Although both claims are understandable neither is well founded. One can, indeed, learn the basic technique of dimensional analysis, what A Student’s Guide to Dimensional Analysis calls the “Rayleigh algorithm,” in ten minutes. But […]

Complexity of cancer stem cells evolution and precision medicine Understanding how tumours grow and develop is a key objective in cancer research. It is, however, an extremely complex problem that needs an interdisciplinary approach where biomedical researchers work side by side with scientists from hard disciplines such as physics (see our latest book: The Physics […]

An Introduction from Senior Commissioning Editor, Vince Higgs Fine-tuning in physics and cosmology explores the realisation that if the Universe had even slightly different initial properties, then the world, and life as we know it, would probably never have come into being. This new book by Geraint Lewis and Luke Barnes examines how different fine-tuning […]

Robert B. Scott, author of A Student's Manual for A First Course in General Relativity, 2016 considers the personal and professional reasons for writing his book and the best aspects of solutions manuals, offering advice on solving problems and getting the best out of the many resources available for learning general relativity

When Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov were preparing their first report on graphene back in 2004 [1], few would have imagined the impact that their paper would have today. Indeed, the story of graphene is remarkable for many reasons. Because of the interesting science that it allowed to explore. Because of the speed with which […]
