Quantum Key Distribution
(2021)Lecture Notes in PhysicsThis textbook introduces the non-specialist reader to the concepts of quantum key distribution and presents an overview of state-of-the-art quantum communication protocols and applications. The field of quantum cryptography has advanced rapidly in the previous years, not least because with the age of quantum computing drawing closer, traditional encryption methods are at risk. The textbook presents the necessary mathematical tools ...Monograph -

A MALDI-MS Methodology for Studying Metabolic Heterogeneity of Single Cells in a Population
(2020)Methods in Molecular Biology ~ Single Cell MetabolismMass spectrometry based metabolomics is the highly multiplexed, label-free analysis of small molecules such as metabolites or lipids in biological systems, and thus one of the most direct ways to characterize phenotypes. However, the phenotyping of populations with single-cell resolution is a great challenge due to the small number of molecules contained in an individual cell. Here we describe a microarray-based sample preparation workflow ...Book Chapter -
Applications of MicroArrays for Mass Spectrometry (MAMS) in Single-Cell Metabolomics
(2020)Methods in Molecular Biology ~ Single Cell MetabolismThe metabolic network is the endpoint in the flow of information that begins with the "gene" and ends with "phenotype" (observable function) of the cell. Previously, due to the variety of metabolites analyzed inside cells, the metabolomic measurements were performed with samples including multiple cells. Unfortunately, this sampling process may mask important metabolic phenomena, such as cell-to-cell heterogeneity. For these studies, we ...Book Chapter -
Peak of the Iceberg
(2020)The Art of Theoretical BiologyMedical imaging plays a central role in cancer therapy, however scans cannot detect the full extent of infiltrative brain tumors. Post-mortem and histological studies show that tumor cells can be found even 2 cm beyond the tumor outlines visible on the medical scans. Current radiotherapy planning is handling these uncertainties in a rather rudimentary fashionBook Chapter -
Foundational patents in artificial intelligence
(2021)Artificial Intelligence and Intellectual PropertyDespite advocating openness, technology leaders have been patenting artificial intelligence (AI) inventions at an exponentially increasing rate. Patents on foundational techniques with broad applications have the potential to deter innovation in the field, should the privatization of key components of artificial intelligence be used to exclude third-party innovators. This chapter studies patent applications in the US and demonstrates the ...Book Chapter -
Multiplexed Genome Engineering with Cas12a
(2021)Methods in Molecular Biology ~ Mammalian Cell Engineering. Methods and ProtocolsGenome engineering technologies based on CRISPR-Cas systems are fueling efforts to study genotype-phenotype relationships in a high-throughput and multiplexed fashion. While many genome engineering technologies exist and provide a means to efficiently manipulate one or a few genes in a singular context-knockout, inhibition, or activation in a constitutive, conditional, or inducible manner-progress towards engineering complex cellular ...Book Chapter -

Information In-Formation: Algorithmic Policing and the Life of Data
(2021)Automating Crime Prevention, Surveillance, and Military OperationsMany aspects of law enforcement increasingly rely on algorithmic processing of digital data. In this book chapter, Mareile Kaufmann and CSS’ Matthias Leese foreground the data that feed into algorithms. In bringing together insights gained from empirical studies on predictive policing software, new materialist thinking and approaches about the liveliness of data, the authors conceptualize data as matter that is “in-formation” due to both ...Book Chapter -
