Prof. Ernst Rank and the TUM-IAS team invite the scientists of TUM and their guests for coffee each Wednesday! Just come over to the TUM-IAS after lunch between 1:00 - 2:00 p.m. and have a coffee with us, meet other scientists and listen from time to time to a short talk (10-15 mins) on a recent major TUM publication or issue – aimed specifically at a non-expert audience.
On May 16, 2018, Prof. Ulrich Gerland (Physics of Complex Biosystems) will talk about regulation mechanisms used by bacteria to adapt to different environments. As has been discovered, these mechanisms are based on a global control process that can be described in a single equation (TUM press release).
