Physical constraints of living systems
北京大学
报告摘要:
In this talk, I will explore how physical constraints, like pressure and density, affect living systems. I will delve into various examples, including protein diffusion at the molecular level, cell-size regulation at the single-cell level, and tissue morphologies at the population level. My aim is to illustrate the influence of physical laws on biological functions and demonstrate how living systems can overcome these constraints.
