In vivo metabolic determinants of T cell aging trajectories
T lymphocytes play a central role in the immune defense against intruders, and support tissue homeostasis and function.Strikingly, an aged or dysfunctional T cell immunity is suffi...
Microbiome centered prediction and prevention of recurrent infections
Antibiotics are a double-edged sword: they help clear the current infection, yet can also select for resistant pathogens, making future infections harder to treat.While treatment g...
X-ray-induced fluidization: a non-equilibrium pathway to reach glasses at the extremes of their stability range.
I will address the fundamental question of what exactly are and how to prepare glasses at the extremes of their stability range: ultra-stable, ideal glasses on the one side and ult...
Science, Society and Environmental Change in the First Millennium CE
In the Mediterranean in the first millennium CE, environmental and climatic changes have been identified as causes for significant short- and long-term societal and political proce...
Deciphering the Regulatory Logic of Cortical Development
