Living systems are driven far from thermodynamic equilibrium through the continuous consumption of ambient energy. This energy is invested in the formation of complex, internal macromolecular structures and diverse…

Place a drop of water on an icy surface—it crystallizes at the point of contact, and a slow ice front steadily grows upwards. Place a bubble instead, and a burst of ice crystals erupts across its interface, far from…

The temperature and polarization anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) have been used to set constraints on decaying dark matter models down to keV masses. In this talk, I will discuss recent work to…

Collective behaviors are processes in which large-scale patterns arise from fundamentally local interactions among individuals; in biological systems, these can be organisms, cells, or molecules. A critical open…
