I still can’t believe that all NIH grants to my colleagues at Harvard and Harvard Medical School have been nullified. And that, as a nation, we’re somehow okay with this illegal, arbitrary, and petty act. Just think of the consequences: scientists, students, and patients will all suffer.

Our fifth new #Research Avenue at PoL is Physical Measurements in Intact Living Systems 🔬
Developing non-invasive microscopy tech is key for measuring physical forces like electric fields, pressure, stress, and more. This will bring our understanding of the physical basis of life to a new level.

How does life organize itself? 🤔 PoL's fourth new #Research Avenue is Energy and Information Flows in Active Matter.

Our aim is to reveal the physical principles underlying the emergent dynamic organization of the living state of matter. To do so, we harness the physics of life to investigate!

Our third new #Research Avenue: Self-Organizing Active Molecular Systems! 🧬

We're uncovering the physical principles of self-organization leading to functional cytoskeletal and chromatin structures. Our research will reveal how these structures emerge from molecular behaviors and interactions!

Our second new #Research Avenue at PoL: Emergent Cellular Phases! 👩‍🔬🧫

RA2 aims to connect the physical principles and underlying molecular mechanisms of how membraneless compartments (like biological condensates) form, to uncover how cells generate, maintain, and control these distinct phases.

Big news 🎉 We are excited to announce the new TUD graduate school "Biomolecular Condensates: From Physics to Biological Functions", with 12 members from PoL! Through this school, we will train a new generation of scientists working on #condensates at the interphase between theory and experiments 🤓⤵️
