Our commentary "A renewed call for open artificial intelligence in biomedicine" is now available as a preprint. We call for sharing training data, code, and model weights in biomedical artificial intelligence research. 1/

Monday: check out a Zoom seminar by postdoc Emiliano Perez Ipina on the SLAAM series sites.google.com/view/slaamsemi… - he'll talk about his work on cells interacting with and modifying complex environments

Want to join JHU Biophysics? We're searching for a theoretical/computational biophysicist (any rank): biophysics.jhu.edu/2024/09/19/wer…

Johns Hopkins University achieves its highest-ever position in the U.S. News & World Report rankings coming in at No. 6 for the nation’s best colleges for undergraduates. The U.S. News & World Report report recognizes Johns Hopkins for its excellence in value, innovation, and undergraduate

Really excited to share our preprint on #Galvanotaxis! We identify Galvanin, a membrane protein acting as an electric field sensor that guides cell migration. Check it out: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #CellBiology #CRISPRi #Migration (Thanks for the support @JCChildsFund and @NIGMS)

Want to highlight again - JHU Biophysics is searching for a computation/theory person. I think JHU is a great environment, and the department is quite supportive of new faculty and friendly - I highly encourage people to apply, and please contact me if you have questions.

Are you an undergraduate interested in pursuing graduate studies biological physics? Join us for a virtual panel “Applying to Graduate School in Biophysics” with panelists who have been on both sides of the application process! Oct. 3 at 3pm ET. Register: apsphysics.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

Nature is surprised academic lineages coalesce if you go back far enough 😂 This is yet another example of something that appears surprising and informative, but it’s actually just a lack of a useful null model being specified. nature.com/immersive/d415…

The #NobelPrize in Physics acknowledging (once again) that Physics is not “only” about materials, subatomic particles, etc. it is also about machine learning, neuroscience, ecology … Statistical mechanics in action! and we have many challenges still ahead!

A physicist is anyone who transforms as a physicist when operated on by the Nobel committee

I wanted to announce our Focus Session on Physical Forces in Wound Healing and Regeneration, which I'm co-organizing with Sindy Tang at the APS 2025 March Meeting (March 16-21, 2025, in Anaheim, CA) (1/n)

Delighted to share my latest #devbiol story ⁦Nautilus Magazine⁩. This one’s about James Bond, cilia, and the wondrously complex interplay of embryos and people. nautil.us/the-anatomical…

Late on advertising this, but if you're in the neighborhood of Penn, I'll be giving a seminar there this Monday, talking about our work on cells sensing electric fields as well as footprint interactions: bio.upenn.edu/events/2024/10…

Abstract deadline has been extended - please submit Morphogenesis abstracts until Oct 31!

Please join BPPB on Friday Nov 8 at 11 US Eastern for a tutorial ("Holographic microscopy to track bacterial motility in 3D") and talk ("Bacterial upstream swimming in complex fluids") by Arnold Mathijssen Arnold Mathijssen. For more info please visit sites.google.com/view/bppb-semi….

If you're interested in a PhD in biophysics (broadly defined), consider Johns Hopkins. Our Jenkins program (Dec 1 deadline) has folks working on CryoEM structures, computational modeling, single-molecule biophysics, and lots more! biophysics.jhu.edu/graduate/jenki…

A phase field model of a crawling cell captures cell motility patterns observed experimentally on confined substrate geometries. It describes how larger, softer epithelial cells hop more persistently while smaller, stiffer cells remain bistable. 🔗 go.aps.org/4gLVi3O

Excited to relocate my lab to Johns Hopkins University and join as a Bloomberg Distinguished Professors! We are actively recruiting at all levels—seeking talented scientists passionate about cracking the codes of the epigenome. Let’s push the frontiers of transcription, DNA repair, and structural biology together!
