Oscillatory dynamics are a found everywhere in living systems, underlying processes such as metabolic regulation, cell division, and embryonic development. Identifying the mechanisms that generate these rhythms is challenging due to nonlinear interactions, multiple time scales, and limited access to all relevant variables. Data-driven approaches offer a promising route to infer dynamical models directly from …

Diffusive transport is one of the most fundamental mechanisms by which information, mass, and chemical signals propagate in physical and biological systems. In many settings—ranging from cellular signaling to chemical sensing—communication is mediated by particles undergoing random motion and interacting with small, spatially localized targets. This talk explores the mathematical structures underlying diffusive signaling, emphasizing …
