Introducing CECAM-US-WEST, a new CECAM node located at UC Berkeley. Programing starting next calendar year! @UCB_Chemistry @cecamEvents https://t.co/KzfbnMsRjK

[Trevor GrandPre @myphysicsvoyage]

Excited to join @WashUPhysics as an assistant professor in Fall 2025! My group will develop non-equilibrium statistical physics to study criticality in biology—biomolecular condensates, gene regulation & adaptive immune systems. DM for postdoc/grad openings! #myphysicsjourney

Excited to give the condensed matter talk today across Oppenheimer way @BerkeleyPhysics. Join if you want to hear about emergence in soft, warm materials driven away from equilibrium my group has been working on @UCB_Chemistry @KavliENSI

[Berkeley Physics @BerkeleyPhysics]

Don't miss the Condensed Matter Seminar on Monday, September 30 with David Limmer: Hydrodynamics of active fluids. Join us at 2:30 p.m. in 251 Physics North.

Congratulations to Aditya @gafnys on winning a poster award at #cecam55 on his work developing variational path sampling and using it to gain insights into reactivity away from equilibrium! @UCB_Chemistry @KavliENSI https://t.co/2Ttspr3Xm8

[limmerlab @limmerlab]

check out Amr's @AmrDodin most recent collaboration with the Saykally group in which he explore how cations--like guanidinium-- can be selectively adsorbed to the air-water interface @UCB_Chemistry https://t.co/8zYucsbOn9

[limmerlab @limmerlab]

Kritanjan's latest takes a fresh look at an old problem: the molecular origin of the super-Maxwellian velocity distribution of evaporating helium from water, finding that it is due to an anomalously small friction at the air-water interface https://t.co/hWH5586BJz @UCB_Chemistry

[limmerlab @limmerlab]

@AsheshGhosh1 @UCB_Chemistry done in close collaboration with Kranthi Mandadapu, en route to further studies on large scale mechanical behavior of driven processes in the cell

[limmerlab @limmerlab]

When is DNA like an asymmetric top? Check out @AsheshGhosh1's study on the twisted worm-like chain, a good model for DNA mechanics, whose Green's function is solved in a basis of Wigner D-functions, the eigenfunctions of the asymmetric top https://t.co/wo0maQi2pw @UCB_Chemistry

If you are at #ACSFall2024 today, make sure to catch Rohit's talk on 2d exciton polarons in lead-halide perovskites

[Trevor GrandPre @myphysicsvoyage]

I'm excited to share that my article, 'Mystery Droplets Inside Cells May Play Vital Roles in Life,' has been published in Scientific American. In this piece, I discuss the physics of biomolecular condensates and reflect on my personal journey in the field. https://t.co/GqFNlNz8wX

[limmerlab @limmerlab]

Out now in @PhysRevE, our way of extending importance sampling algorithms into nonequilibrium steady-states. https://t.co/1myMQL8AI2

[limmerlab @limmerlab]

Check out Jorge's latest, first in the group, in which he develops what we call variational time reversal, a formalism and algorithm to compute distributions of collective variables in nonequilibrium steady-states and active matter https://t.co/HeUmruhhiL @UCB_Chemistry @NSF

In molecular simulations, one often tries to add a force to a system to speed up a rare event. Nearly always their addition obscures the dynamics by which the event would occur naturally. In Aditya’s @gafnys arXiv post he solves this problem https://t.co/BnNrFlbAwb

[limmerlab @limmerlab]

In particular he shows that adding a specific time dependent force related to the committor allows one to study a reactive path ensemble by generating it from a collection of driven trajectories. This is possible in practice even in interacting systems @UCB_Chemistry
