Biology utilizes energy to organize itself from the nanoscale to the macroscopic scale. We seek to determine the universal principles of organization from the molecular scale that gives rise to architecture on the…



Astronomy Seminar: Massive Galaxy Growth since Cosmic Noon

Stijn Wuyts (MPE Garching)
- DRL A6

The Hubble Space Telescope and integral-field spectrographs on the
ground offer us an unprecedented view of the internal physics within
high-redshift galaxies.  Exploiting the powerful synergy between…



Department Colloquium: The First Luminous Objects and the Epoch of Reionization

Adam Lidz, UPenn
- A8

An exciting and largely unexplored frontier in observational and theoretical cosmology is to understand the properties of the universe between 400,000 years and one billion years after the big bang. Notably, the…

Condensed Matter Seminar: "Building Colloidal Aggregates in Anisotropic Media"

Professor Colin Denniston, Western Ontario University
- A4

Colloids in a liquid crystal matrix exhibit very anisotropic interactions. Further, these interactions can be altered by both properties of the colloid and of the liquid crystal. This gives the potential for…
