#LivingArchitectures
We put cells and cytoskeleton filaments on the architecture of the musée d'Orsay.

Scientists of the #CytoMorphoLab adapted their protocols to illustrate the questions that keep them awake at night.
-> Two shows on the 24th and 25th of January.

Postdoc in Theoretical Biophysics Two postdoc positions (each for two years, funded by Amidex Foundation) are available in theoretical biophysics within the theory group at DyNaMo (Aix-Marseille University).

Two 2-year postdoc positions in my theory group — for studying the interplay between metabolism and morphogenesis at the edge of the Calanques and the Mediterranean. More information can be found on: euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/381176

Pleasure to announce the program of my new series of lectures at the College de France in Nov-Dec. Continuing on the theme of Biological information. I will focus on the computational aspects, building on David Marr's tri-level of analysis in biological systems. YouTube link sent when it starts.

Thank you Morgan, let's catch up soon!

I'm excited to share that this summer I'll start my own research group at @univ-amu.fr, @dynamo-lab.bsky.social ! We will work on theoretical biophysics, with a focus on the role of metabolism in morphogenesis and mechanics of multicellular systems. PhD and postdoc openings coming soon, stay tuned!

Transport kinetics across interfaces between coexisting liquid phases We investigate the kinetics of material transport across interfaces in phase-separated mixtures. Using non-equilibrium thermodynamics we derive the interfacial kinetics, describing the movement of the...

The Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems in Dresden has moved its social media presence to BlueSky. Follow us for updates on our research on the Physics of Complex Systems!

Have you seen our #PoLComic yet? Communicating complex #biophysics concepts isn't easy - so we teamed up with artist Jon Chad to develop a #comic series to engage people of all ages! For episode 1, we discuss mass and surface area

Reading this fabulous, honest and revealing autobiographical article by John Hopfield « Now what? » on finding a good research problem.
I think this is a must read. I note the importance of teaching and serendipity.

Our latest discovery of “lowest recorded temperature for eukaryotic cell motility” going all the way down to -15deg C. Come for the crazy cold Arctic & stay for diatoms. Will write longer thread - but enjoy video below of diatoms gliding on frozen ice surfaces. Congrats @zqing.bsky.social & team.

Historic obstacles and emerging opportunities in the field of developmental metabolism – lessons from Heidelberg Summary: Participants of the 2023 EMBO workshop on Developmental Metabolism outline the zeitgeist of the field by summarizing key technological advances and trends in the scientific mindset.

As an intro, I would like to share our perspective article on developmental metabolism. I am a theoretical physicist and very excited about what is coming next in this interdisciplinary field.
