L’AGENDA CHIMIE PARISTECH - PSL

On Monday 10th May at 11:30, we will have the pleasure to listen to a duo of speakers Tamara Ben Ari (INRAE) and Olivier Berné (CNRS) who will talk about a very nice initiative called Labos 1point5 which aims at reducing the environmental footprint of academic research. You will find the abstract and the zoom…

Learning probability distributions from data: applications to Protein Design and predictions of Mutational effects. In this talk I will  introduce the inference of a graphical model, also called Potts model in statistical physics, from sequence data of a protein family . Such models help in establishing the mapping  between the sequence of a protein and…

Magnetic Resonance of  Porous Media and  Brain Yiqiao Song   School of Engineering and Applied Science, Harvard and  Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, Massachusetts General Hospital     Porous material is ubiquitous in nature and human life: rocks, soil, wood, food, and biological tissues are good examples. They are intrinsically multi-phasic, and their microstructure is…

Capillary surfers  Giuseppe Pucci National Research Council of Italy (CNR-Nanotec), Calabria, Italy Active systems have recently attracted considerable interest for the possibility of extending statistical mechanics to incorporate non-equilibrium phenomena, as their constituents locally consume energy in order to move or exert forces on each other. There has been extensive work on dissipation and inertia-dominated active systems (e.g. bacterial suspensions and fish schools, respectively),…
