Biosystems, abundant in information processing units, not only adhere to but also leverage the physical laws shaping cellular materials. This session aims to bring together leading researchers to delve into the physical aspects of biomaterials in information processing, with a particular focus on cell fate decisions. It will showcase innovative methods for understanding and manipulating both multicellular and intracellular dynamics, thereby bridging the gap between biology and physics.
