Look familiar? This video of #zebrafish embryogenesis was used for a 'one-frame per page' flipbook in the December 1996 edition of Development. Credit to Rolf Karlstrom and Don Kane. #ZebrafishFunFacts

Our STEM CELL ZOO paper is out in Cell Stem Cell! By using in vitro differentiation of ES/iPS cells, we recapitulated the segmentation clocks of mouse, human, rabbit, cow, marmoset, and even rhinoceros🐁🧍‍♀️🐰🐄🐒🦏 They showed species-specific clock periods! dlvr.it/SqykTL

We are back!!! Announcing Interdisciplinary challenges 2024: 22-26 April in Dresden (MPI-PKS Dresden). A workshop from and for young researchers in Physics and Biology (but everybody is welcome!!!) New team, new venue, new science! For now, *save the date*! Details in the next days 😉!

I'm thrilled to announce the opening of my laboratory today at the Rosalind Franklin Institute in Oxford & visiting at Oxford University. Very excited to start my independent path as group leader in such a vibrant place! #newPI

#Prélude #Biologie "Régulation du volume des cellules" Le Pr Jean-François Joanny, titulaire de la chaire Matière molle et biophysique, introduit son cours de l'année 2023-2024 👨‍🏫 ⏰ Dernier cours le lundi 11 mars 2024 La suite de cet enseignement 👉 college-de-france.fr/fr/agenda/cour…

Please RT. We are looking for a motivated PhD candidate to work on the biophysics of protein condensates with high-speed atomic force microscopy 👇🏾 Force microscopy group in collaboration with Mauro Modesti CRCM - Cancer Research Centre of Marseille @univamu @Insermpacacorse ANR - Agence nationale de la recherche euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/202000

Interested in how chemical reactions are regulated by condensates? We derived a general theoretical framework when reacting clients are diluted and scaffolds phase separate. Great collaboration with Sudarshana Laha MPI-PKS Dresden Thomas Michaels Preprint see: arxiv.org/abs/2403.05228

Happy to share our collaborative work on the thermodynamics of unicellular growth and metabolism. 🥳🤯 doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

Joint PhD position to develop statistical physics and machine-learning techniques to study proteins in single-molecule experiments, with Rafael Tapia-Rojo and Chris Lorenz. KCL Physics King's College London Start in Oct ‘24. Apply preferentially before April 17. findaphd.com/phds/project/m…

Stop the video and tell me if you can locate the disk (I bet you can't). When even your eyes cannot identify cells in a still image, improving the segmentation method is pointless. A better approach is to use temporal information from previous frames and next frames.

Beautiful story of discovery #microRNA

Let me share a lecture from my ML for Physics course at EPFL, where I derive the Boltzmann machine from the maximum entropy principle and use it to motivate the attention mechanism and a simple transformer architecture. Enjoy! youtu.be/dwMhw2X8_TU youtu.be/od_XiaCJzV0

I’m excited to share the programme of my new series of lectures ⁦Collège de France⁩ in Nov-Dec. I will devote next 2yrs to information flow. As usual, I speak en Français, but all slides (pdf) in English, self-explanatory, video on Youtube. Stay tuned or visit if in Paris. It’s free
