Ever wondered why plant roots are such amazing diggers? 🌱 We combined experiments and simulations 🪄and found the growth-driven penetration strategy of roots is mechanically more efficient than pushing 💪 check it out! doi.org/10.1111/pce.15…

Our latest work out in Physical Review X, with Orit Peleg + Chantal Nguyen 🥳 We find that circumnutations, inherent movements of plants, provide random perturbations crucial for optimal self-organization of crowded sunflowers, minimizing mutual shading☘️ link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/Ph…

If you’re attending #isme19 and interested in animal-microbe symbiosis, consider dropping by my poster tomorrow morning to learn how a unique mosquito species can adaptively curate the composition and function of their microbiota! 🦟🦠

Our new preprint is out!

Our recent work with Ayelet Lesman BioSoft@TAU

🎉 It’s the 2-year anniversary of the Wadhwa lab! Perfect time to share our lab’s first preprint. Read on for a surprising new discovery about bacterial motility. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/

Sneak peek!! ✨✨ "Emergent Simplicities in The Living Histories of *Organisms*” A special symposium edition of @theLHSeries March 2025 APS Meetings Bookmark, join us! 🌞🌞 Warm thanks to the APS-DBIO Program Cmte! 🙏🏿🙏🏿

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!

Are you a Developmental Biologist going on the job market? Consider applying to University of Michigan Department of Cell and Developmental Biology! UMCDB

Work from postdoc Xinzhi Li and graduate student Ani Datta: Proliferation symmetry breaking in growing tissues biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Here they propose a mechanism for generating anisotropic tissue growth via self-organized mechanical feedback.

Excited to give a talk in the fantastic SLAAM seminar series this Monday! I've learned so much from these seminars over the years sites.google.com/view/slaamsemi…

Very happy to share new work by Cal (w Aaron and Arvind Murugan )  arxiv.org/abs/2409.05827 ! We show how the expressivity/computational ability of non-equilibrium biological processes may expected to be fundamentally limited.

Sometimes life surprises you in the best ways: I’ve been named a 2024 Schmidt Polymath! Deeply grateful to my mentors, colleagues, and students who have been part of this journey with me♥️ Stay tuned for some new, delightfully peculiar animal behaviors😉 schmidtsciences.org/six-professors…

Inverse blebs in mouse blastocyst now peer-reviewed Nature Cell Biology with Markus Schliffka and Argo Mukherjee! nature.com/articles/s4155… Check out the excellent tweetorial from Markus Schliffka and celebrate with this latrunculin-treated embryo that is inverse blebbing like there is no tomorrow!

West Campus scientists at the Systems Biology Institute have discovered the thermodynamic principles underpinning energy use in our cells - and a potential pathway to tackle diseases like cancer bit.ly/wave-patterns Murrell Lab Nature Physics

It's great to see this work (started in 2019) published! Congrats to all authors. One major takeaway for me: collaborating with Bement Lab is one of life's greatest joys

Excited to see this work out in Nature Communications with Richard J. Knecht et al. !

The more we rely on climate models for our policy decisions, the imperative it gets to understand them. Here is a beginner's guide to climate models that I wrote for the India Forum:
