Searching for new Fellows is part of how we learn about the most exciting work being done by young people in our field. We hope to make three new appointments with three year terms. Please apply!
Finishing your PhD and interested in the Physics of Life? We are in the midst of our annual search for new Fellows. We are looking for both theorists and experimentalists ready for a bit more independence than a regular postdoc. To learn more: biophysics.princeton.edu/opportunities
One of the pleasures of being at Princeton is to teach alongside wonderful PhD students such as Ravin. Wonderful to see his work recognized, and looking forward to teaching together again this Fall.

Many thanks to the organizers for the invitation, and to the audience for thought provoking questions!
At the frontiers between physics and biology, @wbialek just shared an impressive lecture on the physical principles underlying the design of genetic networks, exploring the optimization of information flow as a potentially fundamental theoretical principle. #CurieSymposium
Very much looking forward to this. The field moves so fast it can be (very) hard to keep up. These great speakers should give us a lively view. Special thanks to @framigna and @Kamesh_Kris who led the organizing effort.
Our next symposium will focus on large language models. Longer talks and plenty of discussion time should help making these exciting developments more accessible! Please join us. No streaming but recorded talks will be posted @ITSCUNY1 .
Looking forward to seeing many friends and colleagues in Paris next month. Honored to help kick off what promises to be a great series of symposia.
📅 In May 2024, join us for the 1st International Symposium of @institut_curie and meet exceptional speakers such as @wbialek, physician and prof. in Physics at @Princeton, keynote speaker of the Systems Session. Discover more on: curiesymposium.fr #CurieSymposium
We started these online, during the pandemic. Genuinely inspiring to hear from such a broad range of young colleagues, on such a wide range of topics at the frontier of our field.
Happy to partner once more with @ITSCUNY1 These events give an opportunity to sample wonderful work by young physicists - from near and far - interested in the phenomena of life. Informal, lots of chance for discussion. Join us in NYC @GC_CUNY or online!
I admit it feels a little funny to be a literal poster child for physics/biology interaction. But what a pleasure to give one more joint seminar with Eric Wieschaus. I continue to find myself inspired by the beauties of the fly embryo, and by Eric's insights.
From Lisbon (2017) to Strasbourg (2024), the Nobel Laureate Eric Wieschaus and the renowned physicist @wbialek will share the stage again in a tandem talk about #frontierscience at the interface of #physics and #biology. The first #HFSPFrontierWorkshop is coming soon! Stay tuned!
We are looking forward to another in this great series of events .. but we need you! Please apply (simple form), deadline extended to Friday Feb 2. We want the widest range of topics and speakers exploring the physics of life.
📢We are accepting speaker applications for Physics of Life: Students and Postdocs Edition (March 1 in NYC). Deadline Jan 29, in two weeks. Please spread the word! itsatcuny.org/studentspostdo…
This is a marvelous program. I have the pleasure of interacting with the students during visits, and felt their enthusiasm
Are you a student who dreams of earning a PhD in physics or mathematics, but who lives in a country lacking such opportunities? ICTP could be your first step on the path to attaining a PhD. Learn more: ictp.it/news/2023/11/c…
