Very excited to be organizing (with @AdamFrank4 and @artemyte) the workshop on Information Driven Dtates of Matter to be held at @UofR from 07/10-07/12. We have a truly stellar (and international) cast; see details below. Thanks to generous support from @templeton_fdn (1/4)

How can physics help us define the limits of cellular life? Tomorrow @sfiscience professor Chris Kempes will be talking about that at the Barcelona Collaboratorium @BCNCollab on "The physical limits of small life". app.smartsheet.eu/b/form/7af… his recent work: arxiv.org/pdf/2403.00001.pdf

How close are living systems to optimal states? In our new paper in @PhysRevResearch with @artemyte and @JordiPinero we searched for universal bounds to this problem within the context of free energy harvesting, with special attention to molecular machines journals.aps.org/prresearch/…

Why is (a)symmetry so important in brains? How did asymmetry evolve? What is the impact on cognition and language? Why half brains might be enough? Come to the Lecture by Luis Seoane @brigan_raman at the @BCNCollab @EMBLBarcelona @CRGenomica @UPFbiomed barcelonacollaboratorium.com…

What is possible in the space of brains and cognitions? Where are ants, cells, xenobots, plants, humans & A.I.s located? Honoured and excited to deliver this year's Stanislaw Ulam Memorial Lectures at @TheLensic in Santa Fe @sfiscience @C4COMPUTATION santafe.edu/events/28th-annu…

Can we do experiments on planetary self-regulation? In the 1970s, James Lovelock proposed that the Earth system self-tunes into a habitable state. Our new paper shows how to do it, using #synbio, on the test tube. preprints.org/manuscript/202…

A new PhD thesis from the @CSLab_UPF at @UPFBarcelona by my student @JordiPinero. A large part was done at @sfiscience in collaboration with our dear colleagues @artemyte and Sid Redner. Liquid brains, Maxwell demons, evolved cooperators, stochastic thermodynamics & more.

How do molecular agents explore their worlds? How can they deal with information processing, energy harvesting and external fluctuations? Can universal thermodynamic bounds be defined? Yes, check our new paper with @artemyte and @JordiPinero @sfiscience arxiv.org/pdf/2303.04975.pdf

We are hiring. Do you want to work on terraforming the biosphere as a strategy against climate change, using synbio and maths? Within our @CSLab_UPF SYNTERRA project, in a joint @EMBLBarcelona and @UPFbiomed collaboration, we open two postdoc positions embl.org/jobs/position/BCN00…

What is the origin ob brain's complexity? Our new exhibition BRAIN(S) in Barcelona will start in a few days cccb.org/en/exhibitions/file… Here's one early view of it that I was drawing a year ago when all this started. @cececebe Come to visit! From July 27th to December 11th.
