Fyodor Kondrashov, Fitness landscape or orthologous GFP genes. This seminar will take place at the seminar room of Gulliver C1.62  at 11:30. Abstract. How genotypes are manifested into phenotypes, an abstract concept colloquially known as a fitness landscape, remains one of the most important unanswered questions in biology. However, deep mutational scans - empirical assays…

Time-domain braiding of anyons By Mélanie Ruelle; Laboratoire de Physique de l’Ecole Normale Supérieure, ENS, Paris, France. Thursday April 3 at 3:00 pm (Paris time), Room Charpak, entrance building, ground floor at LPEM in hybrid. Contrary to fermions and bosons, anyons are quasiparticles that keep a robust memory of particle exchanges via a braiding phase factor. This provides them…
