Open PhD position to work with me on the Stochastic dynamics and thermodynamics of living systems KCL Physics King's College London to start in Oct ‘23 findaphd.com/phds/project/s…

The research group of Dora Tang at MPI-CBG is looking for a Lab Assistant (Technician CTA/BTA/MTA) in dynamic protocellular systems. The Tang group uses bottom-up approaches to synthesise artificial cells with life-like properties. Apply by February 15th. mpi-cbg.de/join-us/open-p…

Pls retweet🙏🙏My new group at UCSD Physics is looking for postdocs to join us. Our lab combines experiments with creative data analysis to understand how symmetry, order and dynamics emerge in living matter tzerhan.com/team

Excited to share our latest work with the Mesoscopic Physics of Life (MPol) - Weber Group! Droplets are usually spherical. We found that liquids can form a weird, new morphology if sustained out of equilibrium: A spherical shell of liquid material. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Petra Schwille kicks of day two of our workshop #EngineeringLife2023. How simple can Life be?

Final day for the workshop #EngineeringLife2023 organized by Kerstin Göpfrich , Job Boekhoven and Mesoscopic Physics of Life (MPol) - Weber Group at MIAPbP . Discussions in progress to settle on the question “What is Life?”- great synergy among biologists, chemists and physicists. Merge Labs 😁

Are you a bioorganic chemist? Then, check out the job opening at the University of Augsburg, Germany, W3. Young faculty, science from quantum to bio, 30 mins to Munich, a great place for families, kayak, and climbing :) Please RT. uni-augsburg.de/en/jobs-und-ka…

Last week took place the 2023 #biophysics retreat in Overwiesenthal. Excellent talks and a wonderful atmosphere with colleagues!

Many congratulations to Frank Jülicher, director at MPI-PKS, who shares the inaugural IUPAP Medal for the Physics of Life for key contributions to #biophysics and #activematter physics!

Fast chemical reactions without enzymes? We show that wet-dry cycles away from equilibrium catalyze chemical reactions, providing a selection mechanism for specific chemical reactions. This may have boosted the Origin of life on early Earth. arxiv.org/abs/2304.14442

The applications for our Quantum Dynamics School are now open! Are you a master student interested in learning more about quantum dynamics, from experiments in ultracold atoms and quantum materials to new theoretical and numerical approaches? Apply now! pks.mpg.de/quant23

🗓️Happening in 1 week: we are excited to share our upcoming interdisciplinary workshop: Bridging the Divide, September 13-15, 2023. The workshop is geared up with an incredible speakers lineup. We are looking forward to the scientific discussions. uni-augsburg.de/en/fakultaet/m…

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

The importance of stupidity in scientific research

As Berlin celebrates 20 years of the Festival of Light, there is a great spectacle of droplets (my POV) on the Brandenburger Tor. As a droplet enthusiast, couldn’t help but capture the moment ;) A beautiful coincidence!

RT appreciated: My lab is recruiting several Ph.D.s and Postdocs excited to build synthetic cells that undergo Darwinian evolution. The backgrounds that we need for include biochemistry, synthetic biology, and systems chemistry. Details: boekhovenlab.com/openings/

Our work on the framework of mass action kinetics of reactive dilute clients in presence of phase-separating scaffold, is out Physical Review Research: journals.aps.org/prresearch/abs…. Thanks to Jonathan Bauermann, Thomas Michaels, Frank Jülicher and Mesoscopic Physics of Life (MPol) - Weber Group for the great collaboration.

How can a cell control the size of its organelles? Excited to share a mechanism to control droplet size we recently found. a 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4146…
