Now #published @cp-cellsystems.bsky.social: "Impossible ecologies: Interaction networks and stability of coexistence in ecological communities" doi.org/10.1016/j.cels.2025.101297! With @yumeng0806.bsky.social, @szhorvat.bsky.social, Carl Modes @mpipks.bsky.social @mpi-cbg.de @csbdresden.bsky.social.

REPOSTING a recent work to announce a start on Bluesky :) 🌐 If you are looking for Friday readings— www.nature.com/articles/s41... an article I and Tom Burkart (@physicsoflifelmu.bsky.social) wrote, featured as a @natphys.nature.com research briefing! From my PhD in @fakhrilab.bsky.social at MIT!

Very excited about the new avenue!! The physics of bioelectrical signalling in tissues, and the molecular mechanism it employs to ensure correct organ regeneration. Check here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Stay tuned for more from us in the coming future!!

Super proud of our collab!!

Looking for a reading snack? Our work is featured as a @NaturePhysics research briefing: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Researchers led by Erwin Frey (LMU Munich) and Nikta Fakhri (MIT) discovered how to reshape living cells with light, revealing key mechanisms behind cell morphogenesis. read article: www.synbiobeta.com/read/lighten... #SyntheticBiology #Optogenetics #ScienceNews

We may not have really squared the circle — but we came close! 😉 In our @NaturePhysics paper w/ @fakhrilab.bsky.social, light-triggered membrane excitability enables programmable shapes — a step toward engineering living matter. 🔗 www.nature.com/articles/s41... #biophysics #syntheticcell #softmatter

Congrats Rita!!

🚀 The Frey Group is now on Bluesky! 🌐 We explore statistical physics, biophysics, and nonequilibrium systems. From active matter to self-organization in biology, we uncover fundamental principles of complex systems. #Physics #Biophysics #ActiveMatter #ComplexSystems #TheoreticalPhysics

We strongly suggest that academic publishers and other platforms that host research rapidly implement a Share to Bluesky button for their articles. Here's how: docs.bsky.app/docs/advance... #AcademicSky #HigherEd #Altmetrics
