March lecture: Keita Kamino

[Leo Zeitler]

I'm trying to make a pun with Brownian motion, so bear with me: Excited about the warmer weather? So are your particles!

Tune in for Keita Kamino's lecture on 

Stochastic Information Processing in Cells: Lessons from E. coli Chemotaxis

March 19, 10am CET (it's in the morning!)

Abstract:

How living cells reliably sense and respond to their environment despite pervasive molecular noise remains a central question in biology. Many cellular processes, including gene expression and signal transduction, are inherently stochastic, leading to substantial variability even among genetically identical cells under identical conditions, as well as temporal variability within individual cells. This variability poses a challenge for understanding cellular sensorimotor behavior, as conventional approaches based on population averages can obscure the underlying single-cell dynamics. In this seminar, Keita will present our recent work investigating how stochasticity shapes cellular information processing, using E. coli chemotaxis as a model system. By combining single-cell measurements of signaling dynamics with quantitative modeling, his team examines both the mechanistic origins and functional consequences of stochasticity in cellular processes. As an experimentalist, Keita will also highlight how technological advances have been crucial for revealing previously inaccessible aspects of cellular information processing.
