It has been shown in recent years that even genetically identical cells behave differently because many central processes involve molecules present in small numbers. The inherent randomness of chemical reactions then...

Surface-attached bacterial communities (biofilms) are widespread and contribute to infections and biofouling in medical and industrial settings. The dense and highly heterogeneous biofilm environment has a strong...
Michael Poirier
The physical organization of all eukaryotic genomes is evolutionarily conserved. Histone protein octamers repeatedly wrap genomic DNA into nucleosomes to form long chromatin fibers. Nucleosomes and chromatin function...
Maxime Deforet
I will present two projects demonstrating the interplay between growth and dispersal in evolutionary contexts. In the first one, I focus on the evolution of expanding populations, such as bacterial colonies or...
Sébastien Neukirch (Institut Jean le Rond d'Alembert)
Nous parlerons d'élasto-capillarité, domaine mellant la déformation des structures élastiques et les forces de tension de surface. En effet, les forces capillaires que développent les gouttes liquides peuvent...
Anthony Genot (LIMMS/U. Tokyo
DNA has emerged in the past decades as a versatile and powerful polymer to build and program at the nanoscale. A rich library of devices has been built with DNA: origamis [1], biochemical neural networks [2], or...
Sophia Karpenko et Jean-Baptiste Tomazo (LJP)
Phototaxis : a behavioral implementation & neural underpinnings. (Sophia) In-mouth texture perception (Jean-Baptiste) Recent psychophysics based experimental investigations on both humans and rodents have revealed...
Hélène Berthoumieux (LPTMC
Water plays an essential role as a solvent for a broad range of processes in nanometric confinement, for example conformational change of proteins or ion transport in biological channels. Modeling water at an...

Autocatalytic reaction fronts between two reacting species, propagate as solitary waves. The coupling between autocatalytic reaction front and forced hydrodynamic flow may lead to stationary fronts whose velocity and...
Olivia du Roure (ESPCI)
Actin is a protein which self-assembles into highly dynamic semi-flexible filaments organized, within the cells, in different kind of meshworks (bundles, crosslinked or dendritic networks). The combination of...
