Title: The History of Cosmic Ecosystems: Hidden Drivers of Galaxy Evolution Abstract: In the last two decades, our understanding of how galaxies form and evolved have matured dramatically. The latest numerical simulations successfully reproduce both the stellar content of galaxies and their large scale statistical properties. However, these models still fail to match the observed…

Title: Genome Organization from the Ground Up -- Deciphering Molecular Mechanisms for Chromatin Organization Abstract: Chromatin structure tightly regulates gene expression and epigenetic processes. The nuclear environment is complex, featuring tension exerted by force-generating proteins and molecular crowding modulated by different ionic concentrations. Understanding the impact of these factors on chromatin structure is crucial for elucidating…

Title: Integrating First-year Research Rotations into Physics Graduate Programs Abstract: The vast majority of physics graduate programs in the USA rely on 1-2 years of intensive classes followed by a shift towards research. Students often begin working in a research group at the end of their 1st year, after they have passed a written and/or…
