Redundancy principle and the role of extreme statistics in molecular and cellular biology.

TL;DR: The physical models, the mathematical analysis and the new paradigm of setting the scale to be the shortest time for activation that clarifies the role of population redundancy in selecting and accelerating transient cellular search processes are reviewed.

Asymptotic Formulas for Extreme Statistics of Escape Times in 1, 2 and 3-Dimensions

TL;DR: Asymptotic laws for the probability density function of the first and second arrival times of a large number N of i.i.d. Brownian trajectories to a small target in 1, 2 and 3-dimensions are derived and applied to activation of biochemical pathways in cellular biology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fast calcium transients in dendritic spines driven by extreme statistics.

TL;DR: In dendritic spines receiving synaptic inputs, it is shown that in the presence of a spine apparatus, a calcium-induced calcium release is triggered at the base of the spine by the fastest calcium ions arriving at a Ryanodyne receptor (RyR).
