Explore the intricate world of cellular energy dynamics in this comprehensive lecture on resource partitioning and energy metabolism. Delve into the fundamental processes that drive biological functions within cells, examining how energy flows are harnessed and distributed. Investigate the energy budgets of cells, the constraints and limits imposed by energy flows on cellular processes, and whether cells operate near these limits. Discover the intersection of nonequilibrium physics, energy metabolism, and cell biology as you learn about physical bioenergetics. Gain insights into how cells use and partition energy between different cellular processes, and understand the associated energetic constraints. This lecture, part of the ICTP-ICTS Winter School on Quantitative Systems Biology, provides a deep dive into the state-of-the-art research in physical bioenergetics, discussing open questions and future challenges in this exciting field.
