Grab it Explore stochastic pattern formation in biological systems through this advanced physics lecture from the School on Biological Physics across Scales: Pattern Formation. Delve into complex mathematical and physical concepts as Professor Nigel Goldenfeld from the University of California San Diego examines pattern formation processes occurring from neural networks to ecosystem-level phenomena. Learn how stochastic processes influence spatial and temporal pattern development across different biological scales, combining principles from statistical physics, nonlinear dynamics, and biological systems. Gain insights into the mathematical frameworks used to analyze and model these patterns, with applications ranging from brain activity to biosphere dynamics.
