Physics Colloquium: "On balanced growth and precision control" Presented by Dr. Suckjoon Jun - UC San Diego

Location:

LL 316

March 5, 2026, 4:25 - 5:25pm

Two core principles underlie bacterial physiology. The first, articulated in the 1950s, is balanced growth — the idea that all cellular components increase at the same rate. The second is precision control — the cell’s ability to coordinate spatial and temporal events, such as DNA…
