This was a truly exciting talk!
🤩. Physical-chemistry of signalling at its best: T cell receptor signalling is really amazing in terms of precision and sensitivity. Kinetic proofreading, kinetic phase transition and amplification. Thank you for visiting us 🙏🏼

We had an amazing seminar from photographer Yousef Al Abshi (www.uaemacro.com), in the lineage of Robert Hooke’s Micrographia. The best ever macro photographies of insects I have ever seen. Art and science at its best 🤩

Our first expedition to the desert to look for snakes, scorpions and more was an amazing experience. Guided by terrific Theo Busschau from South Africa, PhD student at NYUAD, a professional guide, and snakes lover.

Very much enjoying being at NYU Abu Dhabi for 2 weeks to teach undergraduate students a class called “The puzzles of life”. Combines classes, seminars, lab activity and field expeditions. A very rich and intense experience for students coming from various corners of the world, and for me 🤩
