It was so much fun to meet the students and chat about opportunities at the boundary of physics and biology!
Last night, the 1st "Apéro du Master" was held to introduce our Bachelor students to the opportunities offered by our #Master's degree in #biology. A warm and informal event with🍺and🍕in the #LifeScope enjoyed by all😊 @MoCel_Geneva @genevunige #plantsciences @sciences_UNIGE

Mechano-chemical coupling in lung morphogenesis!
Delighted to have our study featured in @PNASNews Front Matter! Many thanks to @carolynmbeans for the insightful interview about our work on how mechano-chemical couplings of cells intricately contribute to the patterning of developing lungs. pnas.org/post/journal-club/b…

Saw this posted on LinkedIn as a leader’s recommended reading list (or something along those lines). Once again I am begging of you, please read more fiction. I promise that it will do more for you vs another productivity optimization book.

It was a an absolutely fantastic meeting. Thank you for all your help and all the work you and the organizers put in!
#EZM2023 It took a year for organisers and several months for volunteers to prepare everything. From Thursday when we collected the badges and had to sort them alphabetically to the last day of the conference, it passed so quickly no matter the amount of work put everyday [1/2]
