Theoretical Biophysics, Quantitative Biology https://sites.google.com/view/theoreticalbiophysics/theoretical-biophysics Our podcast https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/theobiophysics An online seminar series https://sites.google.com/view/popdyn/home

📣 We are organising the workshop "Phases of Collective Cellular Behavior: Rheology, Order & Feedback" from 5.-9. October 2026 at the MPI-PKS in Dresden, Germany. This workshop at the interface between physics and biology is about the collective behaviour of cells. More info: www.pks.mpg.de/colcel26

Now #published @physreve.bsky.social: "Elasticity and plasticity of epithelial gap closure" doi.org/10.1103/qtcv-gk3y #PhD work of Maryam Setoudeh, a model of cell intercalations during epiboly as elastoplastic deformations of a surface. @mpipks.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de @csbdresden.bsky.social

Another #preprint: "Elasticity and plasticity of epithelial gap closure", from the #PhD work of Maryam Setoudeh: arxiv.org/abs/2509.05110 This one required a lot of (I think) beautiful #mechanics! @mpipks.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de @csbdresden.bsky.social

See you soon at PACIFIC #MVIF 47! Heads up ⏰ due to daylight saving time, start times shift by 1 hour in some regions: 1 hour later for Pacific!

Phd Position alert 🚨 Join our project ASTRAfun (Adaptation and Starship Traffic in Root-Associated fungi), in which we will use computational models to unveil the hidden dynamics of fungal evolution. It’s not going to be just regular fun. It’s going to ASTRAfun. 🤓 www.uu.nl/en/organisat...

PhD Position in Computational Modelling of Fungal Evolution

How do giant mobile elements called ‘Starships’ reshape fungal plant pathogens? Help us computationally model their spread and impact in nature and agriculture!
