Summer is coming, but how will you maximize your picnic space when everyone else is doing the same? In our new preprint, we show that branched cells may have an elegant solution: As cells grow and repel neighbors, they don't just cover space, but reach a hidden order called hyperuniformity! 🧪⚛️

We present physics and biology of metabolic scaling in #pint26. If you’ll be in Marseille on May 20, join us at Little Temple Bar to hear about it (of course in French). See also the full program in France below

#LivingArchitectures We put cells and cytoskeleton filaments on the architecture of the musée d'Orsay. www.musee-orsay.fr/fr/agenda/ev... 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).

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.

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!

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.
