Julia Yeomans

Professor Julia Yeomans, a leading researcher in the mechanics of living systems, discusses the innovative extension of mechanical models to analyze how epithelial cells move and interact. She dives into the fascinating world of statistical physics, revealing insights into cell motility and collective behaviors. Listeners learn about the importance of these movements in processes like wound healing and cancer spread. Julia challenges traditional views, prompting us to rethink the dynamics of life at a cellular level.
