It was fun hosting David Weitz in sunny Glasgow! Between visits to two whiskey distilleries, he gave a talk on ‘Cell Rheology, Revisited’, showing how living systems exploit soft matter physics, especially phase separation, for diverse filament dynamics. The group also recorded a podcast with him.

Beautiful brains and whiskey!
Yesterday, we had the great pleasure to host @merrylabnotts.bsky.social at our Department @unistrathclyde.bsky.social. Thanks for your amazing talk about the wonderful world of the glycocalyx! Thanks, in particular, also for great conversations about science and so much more☺️!
