We have opening for scholarship for PhD students. The project goal is to identify regulatory mechanisms that affect patterning precision in the developing spinal cord. Details can be found at: https://zagorskigroup.com/open-positions/. If you are interested please contact me in advance. We wait for your applications till 17 September!

Adela has recently written an article about the premise of cultured meat technology. It appeared in a quarterly Technical Review—The Codex published by DaVinciLabs, a multi-disciplinary research centre. The whole issue also containing articles on quantum computing, AI, and an interview with José Ignacio Latorre, can be accessed here: https://www.flipsnack.com/davincilabs/the-codex-q2-2021.html

Today I will give an evening seminar (7pm) about morphogenes, gene regulation and information processing during development at students’ neuroscience society “Neuronus” (Jagiellonian University). The talk will be available through MS Teams.

Today at 12:00 postdoc Wiktor Młynarski from IST Austria will tell us about statistical inference of optimality in biological systems. He will introduce a framework that can be used to make predictions in different datasets in neuroscience. The webinar will be on Zoom. To join please contact me. Everyone is welcome!

A short interview about my research on developing spinal cord and possible long-term applications. Read at (only in Polish): http://panoramagospodarcza.pl/przelomowe-podejscie-w-badaniach-nad-rdzeniem-kregowym/

Recently I was awarded with the “Polish Intelligent Development Award 2020” in the category “Scientist of the future” for running projects on information decoding in developmental systems (NAWA) as well as deciphering regulatory mechanism for reproducible pattern specification in spinal cord (NCN). I am looking forward to the 5th Intelligent Development Forum (https://irforum.pl/eng/) for inspiring… Read more

On Thursday Nov 5 at 5pm JST time (9am Krakow time), I’ll give a webinar on information processing in the Toyoizumi Lab at RIKEN. The talk will be on Zoom. I’m happy to share a link on request. Everyone is welcome!

It has been a week full of seminars and it’s not over yet. Today at 4:30pm I’ll give an on-line talk on “Navigating through morphospace: physicist’s perspective on multicellular development” at PAU (http://pau.krakow.pl). The talk will be in Polish. The talk will be available through MS-Teams at PAU Team.

Today, at 3pm IST time (11:30 Kraków time) I’ll give an on-line talk about how information is processed during development of spinal cord. The mtg is organized at The Institute of Mathematical Sciences in Chennai. Check the abstract at https://www.imsc.res.in/~asamal/seminar/MarcinZagorski_Oct20_2020.pdf and join on Google Meet meet.google.com/coz-yrmo-nrp. Everyone is welcome!

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.
