Migration00:53

Migration

8.1K
Migration is long-range, seasonal movement from one region or habitat to another. This common strategy, carried out by many different organisms around the world, is an adaptive response that typically corresponds to changes in an organism’s environment, like resource availability or climate. Migrations can involve huge groups of thousands of animals as well as single individuals traveling alone and can range from thousands of kilometers to just a few hundred meters.

Cell Migration01:19

Cell Migration

5.2K
Cell migration is a process by which the cells move from one location to another, playing an essential role in embryological development, repair and regeneration, immune response, and metastasis. Cells migrate in response to chemical or mechanical signals generated by specific organs or tissues. The overall mechanism includes three steps - polarization, protrusion, and release. Polarization involves the formation of a distinct cell front and rear, which determines the direction of movement.

Cytoskeletal Coordination in Cell Migration01:32

Cytoskeletal Coordination in Cell Migration

4.9K
A migrating cell changes its shape during the cyclic events of attachment and detachment from the substratum and repositions the cell organelles correspondingly. These complex events are orchestrated by the dynamic cytoskeletal network comprising actin filaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. Cytoskeletal crosstalk — the direct and indirect communication between the different components — is crucial for this coordination. Direct communication involves various linker...

Role of Myosin in Cell Migration01:18

Role of Myosin in Cell Migration

2.4K
Myosins are multimeric motor proteins involved in various cellular processes such as migration, adhesion, and proliferation. Myosin II is the most common type in animal cells, which binds and cross-links actin filaments.
Myosin II  is a hexamer comprising two heavy chains with globular heads and coiled-coil tails, two regulatory light chains, and two essential light chains. The ATPase sites on the myosin heads hydrolyze ATP, and the released phosphate generates the force for contraction....

Frustration and Conflict: Approach-Approach, Approach-Avoidance01:20

Frustration and Conflict: Approach-Approach, Approach-Avoidance

150
Frustration occurs when people are obstructed or prevented from achieving a desired goal or fulfilling a perceived need. For example, when someone's input is ignored in a discussion, it can lead to feelings of frustration. Conflict, however, arises from opposing interests, goals, or actions. Conflicts can take various forms based on the nature of these opposing desires or goals.
One common type of conflict is the Approach–Approach Conflict. In this case, a person faces two desirable...

Gene Flow02:39

Gene Flow

35.6K
Gene flow is the transfer of genes among populations, resulting from either the dispersal of gametes or from the migration of individuals.

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Conflict migration is complex. This study used an agent-based model with Nepal data to find that while out-migration rates decreased, the overall number of people living outside the country due to conflict increased modestly.

Area of Science:

  • Computational social science
  • Forced migration studies
  • Conflict analysis

Background:

  • Abundant literature exists on migration during armed conflict.
  • Key policy-relevant questions regarding the scale of conflict-induced migration remain under-addressed.
  • Understanding population dynamics is crucial for analyzing conflict-related displacement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the scale of migration flows and stocks resulting from armed conflict.
  • To connect individual behavioral changes during conflict to aggregate migration patterns.
  • To address policy-relevant questions about conflict-driven population movements.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized an agent-based model (ABM), a computational simulation approach.
  • Integrated detailed data from Nepal's 1996-2006 conflict period.
  • Linked micro-level behavioral changes to macro-level migration dynamics.

Main Results:

  • Observed a decrease in average out-migration rates during the conflict period.
  • Attributed the decrease in out-migration primarily to a reduction in return migration.
  • Found a modest increase in the stock of migrants living outside the country during the conflict.

Conclusions:

  • Population dynamics are integral to understanding conflict-related migration.
  • Agent-based modeling provides a valuable framework for studying conflict-induced migration.
  • Findings have implications for policy development concerning conflict and displacement.
