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.

Excited to share our new work with Frank Jülicher on noise control & concentration buffering in intracellular condensates! There has been confusion about these concepts, which we aim to address in this paper.

Here is the link to last course @collegedefrance.bsky.social on biological information, devoted to cellular learning & memory. From molecular memory (allostery, protein modification) to signalling networks with memory (bistability etc),structural memory & cell memory. Enjoy!

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.

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.
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.
