Barriers aren’t always bad. Sometimes, they are the bridge that gives rise to complexity. At all scales, biological units are separated from their environment by surfaces. From the membranes that surround our cells to the tissues that organize our body, these surfaces are governed by the same physical principles. Today, we are joined by Professor Aurélien Roux from the Faculty of Science to discuss how to better understand the barriers that organize life. Stay tuned as we explore the « Physics of Living Surfaces ».
