Paul François awarded a Simons Investigator Award

Paul François Aug 2014: Paul François has been awarded an inaugural Simons Investigator Award in Mathematical Modeling Of Living Systems.

Paul François is known for his work on physical aspects of embryonic development, in particular his analysis of the mechanisms underlying embryonic patterning, for example, the role of genetic oscillators in the development of vertebrae. His research plans involve investigations of the physical bounds for information processing in the immune system and further investigation of the physical mechanisms of vertebrae formation.

Congratulations Paul!
