Course Description

Overview

Explore the fascinating world of biological information storage and retrieval in this engaging KITP Chalk Talk by Professor Suri Vaikuntanathan from the University of Chicago. Delve into how non-equilibrium dynamics can significantly enhance memory and information processing performance in biological systems, from neuronal circuits to immune memory. Discover how the olfactory system stores and distinguishes vast arrays of smells, and how the immune system utilizes stored memory to combat new infections. Learn about the limitations of traditional equilibrium-based paradigms in understanding these processes, and gain insights into how concepts from active matter research are revolutionizing our understanding of biological information processing. Benefit from Professor Vaikuntanathan's expertise in statistical mechanics and its applications to complex systems in physical chemistry, soft condensed matter physics, and biophysics.
