Beyond Euclid: An Illustrated Guide to Modern Machine Learning with Geometric, Topological, and Algebraic Structures New review out with Nina Miolane, co-led by myself, Johan Mathe & Mathilde Papillon Check out our visual taxonomies of non-Euclidean structure in data & ML models
For the first time, our Curiosity Rover rover has found crystals of pure sulfur on the Red Planet—after rolling over a rock and cracking it open: go.nasa.gov/4bLGG1v
Happy to highlight the work of Judit Sastre and Advait Thatte from the Mesoscopic Physics of Life (MPol) - Weber Group! We found spontaneous oscillations in synthetic cells. When continuously supplied with chemical fuel, the number of organelles and their location start oscillating. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
What is the origin of genetic information? How did the first codes evolve? What are the limits imposed by mutation to genome complexity? Check this great 1981 paper in Scientific American by Manfred Eigen Universität Wien & Santa Fe Institute Peter Schuster & cols. Josep Sardanyés jstor.org/stable/pdf/249…
Did not know of this paper! 200+ theories. 😵💫 Paper by Robert Kuhn. Illustration by Alex Gomez-Marin Àlex Gómez-Marín doi.org/10.1016/j.pbio…
This week’s riots aren’t happening in a vacuum. We’re living and breathing on platforms that billionaires have optimised for outrage. This is the world that social media made. My piece for The Observer with contributions from the great Maria Ressa + more theguardian.com/media/article/…
What are the physical limits of computation? What is the energy cost of a bit? Can we design a molecular Turing machine running inside cells? Here's a great Scientific American paper by Charles Dennett and Rolf Landauer: physics.bu.edu/~pankajm/PY541…
So excited to finally share this! Most of the merit goes to my amazing team and friends/colleagues who helped me get to this point! Now ready for new (well funded!) adventures Cambridge Biochemistry and Corpus Christi 🤩
Very happy to celebrate this week that my 3rd PI grant to study the catalytic isomerization of galactose into low-calorie tagatose has been funded by Dept. of Agriculture! 🥳 Years of formose reaction work is paying off 😆 Huge thanks to the generous Jikai Zhao for his support UTRGV Division of Research
