Condensate fans and attendees of #apsmarch! Consider sending your abstract (due Oct 25!) to: "Bio-inspired phase-separation" the @ApsDsoft and @ApsDbio focus session I am organizing with @SamWilken_ (session # 02.01.20 or, identically 04.01.39) Thanks!

I will be giving the SLAAM Seminar next Monday morning October 7 (10am Pacific time/1pm Eastern) on Zoom. Please attend if you're interested in biomolecular phase separation, transcriptional control and hyperuniformity! More details: sites.google.com/view/slaams…

Happy to share our just-published review article on liquids (condensates) formed from nucleic acids. We tried to be pretty comprehensive, yet during the publication process ~6 more papers in the area appeared...ah well. see here, hope you like it: iopscience.iop.org/article/1…

March meeting attendees: Check out session K35, “Bio-inspired phase separation”, Tuesday 3-6pm, with great talks on various condensate and compartmentalized systems, including invited talks from Will Jacobs (Princeton) and Sam Wilken (UCSB) Details attached; link follows

Attendees of #apsmarch, I again ask you to consider sending your abstract (due Oct 20!) to: "Bio-inspired phase-separation" the @ApsDsoft focus session I am organizing with @SamWilken_ See link below for details of this, and all DSoft sessions: march.aps.org/attendees-pres…

A cogent summary of our recent PRX publication. I'm particularly excited about the potential implications of the general mechanism, implying that hyperuniform structures may exist in phase-separating systems in far ranging fields from ecology, astronomy and image processing.

Friends, a thread to advertise our recent paper in @PhysRevX: @SamWilken_ and Aria Chaderjian showed that biomolecular phase separation can lead to _hyperuniform_ patterning of droplets, structures that are locally random but ‘ordered’ over long scales journals.aps.org/prx/abstrac…
