In the thirteenth episode, Daniel Zuckerman and I talk about textbooks on statistical biophysics and a physics-based vision of biology, a few of which he himself authored. Daniel reveals that his passion for clarity in writing comes from his early humanities background, and makes a case for how well-thought and physically motivated narratives can unlock profound insights into the inner workings of biology. Then, we move on to discuss the physical theory behind trajectory ensembles, Daniel's preferred lens through which to view statistical mechanics. We dissect the strengths and limitations of this approach, and let ourselves speculate about its future evolution.
