Join this 75-minute webinar from the APS DSNP klogW Zoom Seminar series featuring Prof. Dr. Erwin Frey from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München exploring emergence and self-organization in biological systems. Discover how living and lifelike systems operate far from thermal equilibrium, contrasting with isolated systems that evolve toward thermal equilibrium. Learn about the fundamental physical principles underlying the emergence of structure, order, and information in biological processes. Examine two key areas of research: the self-organized formation of spatiotemporal patterns and the robust self-assembly of complex structures. Gain insights into recent advances in understanding the physics behind these phenomena, with particular focus on how biological systems create and maintain organization despite being driven systems operating away from equilibrium states.
