Getting to be a part of the Physiology course as a faculty instructor (along with the amazing Alejandro Martínez Calvo Carolina Trenado Sebastian Gonzalez La Corte as TAs) was a real treat! It was intense, exciting, and inspiring. Thank you to brangwynnelab and Gladfelter Lab for your amazing leadership.

This month, I officially started as an Assistant Professor at UC San Diego. I’m thrilled to join the Department of Physics UC San Diego Physics and the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry in UC San Diego School of Physical Sciences. I’m especially excited to be part of the UCSD Biophysics faculty - a unique place

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Physics to John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.”

Congratulations to #PrincetonU professor emeritus John Hopfield on receiving the 2024 The Nobel Prize in Physics.

Stimulating conference on Condensates & Enzymology, in Black Forest. (An adventure getting here - roadside delays made fun w Princeton University colleague Ned Wingreen). Wonderful mtg - Thx Hyman Lab + @PappulabWashU Phillips Hartl Lemke Simon Alberti Daniel Colón Ramos Jonathan Rodenfels Dai + others

Should I stay or should I go? 🎶 In a new opinion piece, Claudia Igler, Andrina Bernhard and I discuss how conjugative plasmids and temperate bacteriophages balance vertical and horizontal transmission: ecoevorxiv.org/repository/vie… Our framework illuminates many sides of MGE biology (1/7)

Thank you to Soft Matter for this recognition! It reflects the collective efforts of the incredible students, postdocs, and colleagues I've been lucky to interact with. I enjoyed describing some of the intellectual directions we're excited about in the interview linked below ⬇️.

It was a great pleasure to present some recent work and personal stories on how I got introduced to the field of biophysics. so excited to be a part of the UCSD biophysics community.

Unexpectedly running into Carolina Trenado Alejandro Martínez Calvo yet again, great catching up! Hongbo Zhao

What better ways to celebrate science, friendship, and stories of the biophysics journey with amazing friends from UCSD and Princeton!

💧Excited to share our latest work on the many shapes of surface-attached active drops! Let us know what you think—we’d love to hear your feedback! arxiv.org/pdf/2411.14636
