Understanding Navon: A detailed structural and conceptual analysis of a basic local–global task
We show that local–global biases in visual perception are not a single construct even within a single task. We examine the structural and conceptual intricacies of the Navon task in depth to pave the way for a deeper understanding and more effective use of the paradigm.

Bachelor Thesis: In-silico identification, production and verification of the receptor binding protein of the Paenibacillus phage HB10c2
Receptor binding proteins (RBP) of bacteriophages are responsible for recognizing and and attaching to the host of the bacteriophage. The gene product gp17 (HB_00017) could be the RPB of the Paenibacillus phage HB10c2, but further tests are necessary.
