In 20 min, Adela will present her post-doctoral research on cluster analysis for super-resolution microscopy. Join us for the first seminar in the winter semester at MarkKacSeminar team on MS Teams.

The conference “Dynamics of Biological Systems: from viruses to populations” co-organized by our group is over. We had 34 talks and 120 participants. Many thanks to all speakers for excellent talks and everyone for lively discussions! We are looking forward to the next edition!

Yesterday Jan successfully defended his bachelor thesis about error correction mechanisms in pattern formation of developing tissues. He will soon start at the Heidelberg University the BSc to PhD program at the Max Planck School ‘Matter to Life’. Good luck Jan!

My interview on how cells acquire information about their position in the tissue is now is available at https://rzeczo.pl/chemiczne-sygnaly-dla-komorek/. Photo credit goes to Adela.

We organize conference ‘Dynamics of Biological Systems: from viruses to populations’ on 23-25 September. We have excellent speakers and expect many great contributions from participants! Register now at: https://indico.cern.ch/event/943962/overview

The annual meeting of the Society of Mathematical Biology is about to come to an end. There were many interesting talks and still a few to come with the keynote by Adam Martin. Many thanks to Andreas Buttenschoen and Alex Fletcher for organising the Cell and Developmental Biology session!

Last week, Adela Staszowska joined our group as a postdoc. Adela did a postdoc at the Randall Centre for Cell and Molecular Biophysics at King’s College London. She will investigate how gene regulatory networks interpret noisy morphogen signals.

The outstanding young researchers received scholarships from the Minister of Science and Higher Education. 5 out of 18 scholarships at the Jagiellonian University went to the researchers at the Faculty of Physics, Astronomy and Applied Computer Science: Anna Majcher Fitas, Kamil Korzekwa, Rafał Zuzak, Mateusz Łącki and Marcin Zagórski.

Yesterday Sława Szostek from CM UJ delivered a very in-depth seminar on coronaviruses in the Monday series of “Interdisciplinary seminars: Enigmas of Chance”. We look forward to more interdisciplinary seminars.

On Monday Maciej gave seminar at IChF Warsaw. We also had intense discussions about noise effects in gene regulation with members of Anna Ochab-Marcinek group (http://groups.ichf.edu.pl/ochab). Great stay!
