Jonathan Ron, “Deterministic cell motility patterns across scales and sizes”
Seminar room of physics (106) (IJS)Cell motility plays a crucial role in various biological processes, such as embryogenesis, wound healing, and immune response. Although the complex molecular machinery driving cell motility is relatively well understood, it remains unclear how cells exhibit such diverse migration patterns, … Read More
Enrico Morgante: Gravitational waves from confinement in improved holographic QCD
https://zoom.us/j/3601731049?pwd=bVNQRjUxU2ExZ0cveWcxYXNUUGdjZz09 (A/1-106 - Seminarska soba fizike (F5))I will discuss gravitational waves produced during the confinement phase transition in SU(N) Yang-Mills, using a holographic description. The key ingredient will be the construction of the effective action, with the kinetic term playing an important role. https://indico.ijs.si/event/2680/

Petr Šulc, “DNA and RNA nanotechnology: molecular computing, therapeutics, and the quest for the holy grail of self-assembly”
A/1-106 - Seminarska soba fizike (F5) (Jamova)The control over the self-assembly of complex structures is a long-standing challenge of biomimetic nanotechnology, as the desired assembly pathway is often kinetically derailed by the formation of competing alternative structures or amorphous aggregates. The goal of inverse design problem … Read More

C/2-X - F1 čajnica (Jamova)I will motivate the use of E6 grand unified theory and describe a realistic E6 GUT which gives rise to novel possible intermediate stages. https://indico.ijs.si/event/2874/
Stephane Jedele, “Study of the KCNN4 channel involved in the pathological dehydration of red blood cells using molecular modeling approaches”
C/2-X - F1 čajnica (Jamova)KCNN4 is a calcium (Ca)-activated potassium (K+) channel translocating K+ ions across several cellular membranes and for which Ca2+ sensitivity is conferred by calmodulin (CaM). Until the main part of the protein structure bound to CaM has been resolved, in … Read More
Sascha Ollertz, “Agent-based modelling of cell differentiation patterns in mouse blastocysts”
C/2-X - F1 čajnica (Jamova)Early embryonic development from zygote to blastocyst is a highly dynamic, self-organised process in which stem cells undergo successive cell fate decisions and form a complex structure. Local patterns in the early and mid blastocyst stage resolve into global patterns … Read More
