Our old format isn't going away, but this week we are covering all the papers that came out in Biophysics in the week of February 2nd, 2026! Let us know what you think of this.

If people like it, we will either rotate this in every other episode (and cover two weeks), or rotate it in every Monday as it's own thing and move the weekly full Journal Club to Friday.

This week's paper is "Dynamics of a Volvox Embryo Turning Itself Inside Out” by Stephanie Höhn, Aurelia R. Honerkamp-Smith, Pierre A. Haas, Philipp Khuc Trong, and Raymond E. Goldstein
