  • Very nice feed, but …

    All uploads have the same date on them and not the dates of the talks, this is why my (and probably most) podcatcher sorts the talks wrong and provides the wrong episode in the feed.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Active feedback and functionality in model tissues
Q: Is the front propagating because of cell divisions?
It's a mixture of flattening the sheet over time and some division, though these are largely decoupled in our model.
Active feedback and functionality in model tissues
Q: Do you believe in theory of leading cells or?
Leading cells are definitely present biologically, but their exact role is complicated and may involve more than just pulling the whole finger structure.
Moire Systems as Quantum Simulators of Many Strongly Correlated System
Q: What challenges do the inherent disorders in these systems present for large-scale quantum simulations?
Inherent disorder can complicate the simulation of large-scale systems, but the resilience of certain two-dimensional materials against disorder provides opportunities for effective quantum simulations.
Moire Systems as Quantum Simulators of Many Strongly Correlated System
Q: Can twisting layers of materials effectively create flat bands?
Yes, twisting two layers of materials such as graphene can drastically reduce bandwidth from electron volts to milli-electron volts, resulting in flat bands and enhancing interaction effects.
Moire Systems as Quantum Simulators of Many Strongly Correlated System
Q: What are Moiré systems and how do they function as quantum simulators?
Moiré systems create a new periodicity in material lattices that generates flat bands, leading to suppressed kinetic energy and significant interactions, which are crucial for simulating complex many-body phenomena.
