Science Writing

Biology, measurement, and the gap between them.

Series on Dynamics & Organ Engineering

1. 01
   The Cell Is Not a Photograph
   Why pseudotime, RNA velocity, and optimal transport are workarounds for a deeper problem and what actually measuring dynamics looks like.
2. 02
   The Recorder Zoo
   A tour through every molecular recording system biology has built, from CRISPR indel recorders to protein structures that grow like tree rings inside living neurons.
3. 03
   We Cannot Build Organs Yet
   A state of the union on organ bioengineering in 2026. What works, what doesn't... first hand accounts from the a leading organoid Institute.
4. 04
   Thinking about constraints and control, not components
   Biological reliability comes from constraining the space of possible trajectories, not specifying exact states, and what that means for measurement and organ engineering.
