This thesis argues that there are benefits to treating these problems in the same domain as human designers, namely, the parametric one. One reason is that discretizing a parametric model usually removes the capability of making further manual changes to the design, because the human intent is captured by the shape parameters. Beyond this, knowledge about a design problem can sometimes reveal a structure that is present in a smooth representation, but is fundamentally altered by discretizing. In this case, working in the parametric domain may even simplify the optimization task. We present two lines of research that explore both of these aspects of fabrication-aware shape optimization on parametric representations.\r\n\r\nThe first project studies the design of plane elastic curves and Kirchhoff rods, which are common mathematical models for describing the deformation of thin elastic rods such as beams, ribbons, cables, and hair. Our main contribution is a characterization of all curved shapes that can be attained by bending and twisting elastic rods having a stiffness that is allowed to vary across the length. Elements like these can be manufactured using digital fabrication devices such as 3d printers and digital cutters, and have applications in free-form architecture and soft robotics.\r\n\r\nWe show that the family of curved shapes that can be produced this way admits geometric description that is concise and computationally convenient. In the case of plane curves, the geometric description is intuitive enough to allow a designer to determine whether a curved shape is physically achievable by visual inspection alone. We also present shape optimization algorithms that convert a user-defined curve in the plane or in three dimensions into the geometry of an elastic rod that will naturally deform to follow this curve when its endpoints are attached to a support structure. Implemented in an interactive software design tool, the rod geometry is generated in real time as the user edits a curve and enables fast prototyping. \r\n\r\nThe second project tackles the problem of general-purpose shape optimization on CAD models using a novel variant of the extended finite element method (XFEM). Our goal is the decoupling between the simulation mesh and the CAD model, so no geometry-dependent meshing or remeshing needs to be performed when the CAD parameters change during optimization. This is achieved by discretizing the embedding space of the CAD model, and using a new high-accuracy numerical integration method to enable XFEM on free-form elements bounded by the parametric surface patches of the model. Our simulation is differentiable from the CAD parameters to the simulation output, which enables us to use off-the-shelf gradient-based optimization procedures. The result is a method that fits seamlessly into the CAD workflow because it works on the same representation as the designer, enabling the alternation of manual editing and fabrication-aware optimization at will." acknowledged_ssus: - _id: M-Shop alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Christian full_name: Hafner, Christian id: 400429CC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Hafner citation: ama: 'Hafner C.

Our solution lets us finely control the static equilibrium state of a rod by varying the cross-sectional profiles along its length.\r\nWe also show that the set of physically realizable equilibrium states admits a concise geometric description in terms of linear line complexes, which leads to very efficient computational design algorithms.

Already Pavlov (1927) in his early days has used his classic\r\nconditioning experiments to study the neural mechanisms governing behavioral adaptation.\r\nWhat was not known back then was that the part of the brain that is largely responsible for\r\nthis type of associative learning is the cerebellum.\r\nSince then, plenty of theories on cerebellar learning have emerged. Despite their differences,\r\none thing they all have in common is that learning relies on synaptic and intrinsic plasticity.\r\nThe goal of my PhD project was to unravel the molecular mechanisms underlying synaptic\r\nplasticity in two synapses that have been shown to be implicated in motor learning, in an\r\neffort to understand how learning and memory formation are processed in the cerebellum.\r\nOne of the earliest and most well-known cerebellar theories postulates that motor learning\r\nlargely depends on long-term depression at the parallel fiber-Purkinje cell (PC-PC) synapse.\r\nHowever, the discovery of other types of plasticity in the cerebellar circuitry, like long-term\r\npotentiation (LTP) at the PC-PC synapse, potentiation of molecular layer interneurons (MLIs),\r\nand plasticity transfer from the cortex to the cerebellar/ vestibular nuclei has increased the\r\npopularity of the idea that multiple sites of plasticity might be involved in learning.\r\nStill a lot remains unknown about the molecular mechanisms responsible for these types of\r\nplasticity and whether they occur during physiological learning.\r\nIn the first part of this thesis we have analyzed the variation and nanodistribution of voltagegated calcium channels (VGCCs) and α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid\r\ntype glutamate receptors (AMPARs) on the parallel fiber-Purkinje cell synapse after vestibuloocular reflex phase reversal adaptation, a behavior that has been suggested to rely on PF-PC\r\nLTP. We have found that on the last day of adaptation there is no learning trace in form of\r\nVGCCs nor AMPARs variation at the PF-PC synapse, but instead a decrease in the number of\r\nPF-PC synapses. These data seem to support the view that learning is only stored in the\r\ncerebellar cortex in an initial learning phase, being transferred later to the vestibular nuclei.\r\nNext, we have studied the role of MLIs in motor learning using a relatively simple and well characterized behavioral paradigm – horizontal optokinetic reflex (HOKR) adaptation. We\r\nhave found behavior-induced MLI potentiation in form of release probability increase that\r\ncould be explained by the increase of VGCCs at the presynaptic side. Our results strengthen\r\nthe idea of distributed cerebellar plasticity contributing to learning and provide a novel\r\nmechanism for release probability increase.

Complex I is the first and the largest enzyme of the respiratory chain which is essential for energy production. It couples the transfer of two electrons from NADH to ubiquinone with proton translocation across bacterial or inner mitochondrial membrane. The coupling mechanism between electron transfer and proton translocation is one of the biggest enigma in bioenergetics and structural biology. Even though the enzyme has been studied for decades, only recent technological advances in cryo-EM allowed its extensive structural investigation. \r\n\r\nComplex I from E.coli appears to be of special importance because it is a perfect model system with a rich mutant library, however the structure of the entire complex was unknown. In this thesis I have resolved structures of the minimal complex I version from E. coli in different states including reduced, inhibited, under reaction turnover and several others. Extensive structural analyses of these structures and comparison to structures from other species allowed to derive general features of conformational dynamics and propose a universal coupling mechanism. The mechanism is straightforward, robust and consistent with decades of experimental data available for complex I from different species. \r\n\r\nCyanobacterial NDH (cyanobacterial complex I) is a part of broad complex I superfamily and was studied as well in this thesis. It plays an important role in cyclic electron transfer (CET), during which electrons are cycled within PSI through ferredoxin and plastoquinone to generate proton gradient without NADPH production. Here, I solved structure of NDH and revealed additional state, which was not observed before. The novel “resting” state allowed to propose the mechanism of CET regulation. Moreover, conformational dynamics of NDH resembles one in complex I which suggest more broad universality of the proposed coupling mechanism.\r\n\r\nIn summary, results presented here helped to interpret decades of experimental data for complex I and contributed to fundamental mechanistic understanding of protein function.\r\n" acknowledged_ssus: - _id: EM-Fac alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Vladyslav full_name: Kravchuk, Vladyslav id: 4D62F2A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Kravchuk orcid: 0000-0001-9523-9089 citation: ama: Kravchuk V.

For instance, embryonic\r\nstem cell cultures can recapitulate the hallmarks of gastrulation, i.e. break symmetry\r\nleading to germ layer formation and morphogenesis, in a very reduced environment.\r\nThis leads to questions on specific contributions of embryo-specific features, such as\r\nthe presence of extraembryonic tissues, which are inherently involved in gastrulation\r\nin the full embryonic context. To address this, we established zebrafish embryonic\r\nexplants without the extraembryonic yolk cell, an important player as a signaling\r\nsource and for morphogenesis during gastrulation, as a model of ex vivo development.\r\nWe found that dorsal-marginal determinants are required and sufficient in these\r\nexplants to form and pattern all three germ layers. However, formation of tissues,\r\nwhich require the highest Nodal-signaling levels, is variable, demonstrating a\r\ncontribution of extraembryonic tissues for reaching peak Nodal signaling levels.\r\nBlastoderm explants also undergo gastrulation-like axis elongation. We found that this\r\nelongation movement shows hallmarks of oriented mesendoderm cell intercalations\r\ntypically associated with dorsal tissues in the intact embryo. These are disrupted by\r\nuniform upregulation of BMP signaling activity and concomitant explant ventralization,\r\nsuggesting that tight spatial control of BMP signaling is a prerequisite for explant\r\nmorphogenesis. This control is achieved by Nodal signaling, which is critical for\r\neffectively downregulating BMP signaling in the mesendoderm, highlighting that Nodal\r\nsignaling is not only directly required for mesendoderm cell fate specification and\r\nmorphogenesis, but also by maintaining low levels of BMP signaling at the dorsal side.\r\nCollectively, we provide insights into the capacity and organization of signaling and\r\nmorphogenetic domains to recapitulate features of zebrafish gastrulation outside of\r\nthe full embryonic context." acknowledged_ssus: - _id: Bio - _id: LifeSc alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Alexandra full_name: Schauer, Alexandra id: 30A536BA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Schauer orcid: 0000-0001-7659-9142 citation: ama: 'Schauer A.

Accordingly, root systems adapt to maximize NO3− availability, a developmental regulation also involving the phytohormone auxin. Nonetheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying this regulation remain poorly understood. Here, we identify low-nitrate-resistant mutant (lonr) in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), whose root growth fails to adapt to low-NO3− conditions. lonr2 is defective in the high-affinity NO3− transporter NRT2.1. lonr2 (nrt2.1) mutants exhibit defects in polar auxin transport, and their low-NO3−-induced root phenotype depends on the PIN7 auxin exporter activity. NRT2.1 directly associates with PIN7 and antagonizes PIN7-mediated auxin efflux depending on NO3− levels. These results reveal a mechanism by which NRT2.1 in response to NO3− limitation directly regulates auxin transport activity and, thus, root growth. This adaptive mechanism contributes to the root developmental plasticity to help plants cope with changes in NO3− availability. acknowledgement: We are grateful to Caifu Jiang for providing ethyl metha-nesulfonate- mutagenized population, Yi Wang for providing Xenopus oocytes, Jun Fan and Zhaosheng Kong for providing tobacco BY- 2 cells, and Claus Schwechheimer, Alain Gojon, and Shutang Tan for helpful discussions.

Inspired by the discovery that mutations in SLC7A5, a transporter of metabolically essential large neutral amino acids (LNAAs), lead to autism, we employed metabolomic profiling to study the metabolic states of the cerebral cortex across different developmental stages. We found that the forebrain undergoes significant metabolic remodeling throughout development, with certain groups of metabolites showing stage-specific changes, but what are the consequences of perturbing this metabolic program? By manipulating Slc7a5 expression in neural cells, we found that the metabolism of LNAAs and lipids are interconnected in the cortex. Deletion of Slc7a5 in neurons affects the postnatal metabolic state, leading to a shift in lipid metabolism. Additionally, it causes stage- and cell-type-specific alterations in neuronal activity patterns, resulting in a long-term circuit dysfunction. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: PreCl - _id: EM-Fac - _id: Bio - _id: LifeSc acknowledgement: We thank A.

My work involved an in-depth examination of\r\nthe complex strategies employed by neutrophils, with a specific focus on their ability to\r\nsynchronize spatial-temporal cues and optimize their gradient perception. However, it\r\nis essential to acknowledge that not all projects yielded successful results, as some\r\nideas were discontinued and are archived for future reference within this thesis.\r\nMy main project investigated how neutrophils decode spatial cues for precise navigation. Human neutrophils showcased distinct movement patterns based on source\r\ntype – linear or point-like. By combining single-cell tracking in 3D environments with\r\nproxy dyes, this project linked cell behaviors to gradient changes, revealing a stronger\r\nresponse to semi-exponential gradients from point sources. In addition, neutrophils\r\nexhibited oscillating migration speeds, using speed minima to adjust trajectories toward sources. Experiencing continuous concentration changes, they accelerated over\r\ntime and employed a \"Run and Fumble\" strategy, alternating between consistent runs\r\nand strategic \"tumbles\" for efficient navigation.\r\nThe project extended to the possibility of cells amplifying perceived gradients by\r\nenclosing their immediate surroundings, pushing attractants forward for enrichment\r\nwhile depleting it at the cell rear. Microfluidic devices were employed, and various experimental parameters configurations were optimized. Although significant differences\r\nin migratory efficacy were detected across pore sizes and device heights, quantifying\r\ngradient manipulation effects proved challenging.\r\nThe \"Laser-Assisted Protein Adsorption by Photobleaching\" (LAPAP) project was\r\npromising, as it allowed the printing of gradients. Initially successful with dendritic cells,\r\nwe aimed to adapt it for neutrophils. Through extensive experimentation with multiple\r\nparameters, we attempted to trigger responses from neutrophils. Despite these efforts\r\nand collaboration, the project failed due to practical challenges and limitations.\r\nFacing a lack of neutrophil-like cells at IST, we initially established the SCF-HoxB8\r\nprimary murine cell line. Despite their existence, their migratory behavior was largely\r\nunexplored due to potential limitations. Through differentiation protocol refinements we\r\nenhanced their migratory capabilities, though their capacity still lagged behind human\r\nneutrophils. Despite this, the improved migration potential of these cells pointed toward\r\ntheir utility for in vitro murine neutrophil migration studies." acknowledged_ssus: - _id: LifeSc - _id: Bio alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Julian A full_name: Stopp, Julian A id: 489E3F00-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Stopp citation: ama: 'Stopp JA.

We identify a curvature-sensing mechanism underlying obstacle evasion in immune-like cells. Specifically, we propose that actin polymerization at the advancing edge of migrating cells is inhibited by the curvature-sensitive BAR domain protein Snx33 in regions with inward plasma membrane curvature. The genetic perturbation of this machinery reduces the cells’ capacity to evade obstructions combined with faster and more persistent cell migration in obstacle-free environments. Our results show how cells can read out their surface topography and utilize actin and plasma membrane biophysics to interpret their environment, allowing them to adaptively decide if they should move ahead or turn away. On the basis of our findings, we propose that the natural diversity of BAR domain proteins may allow cells to tune their curvature sensing machinery to match the shape characteristics in their environment. acknowledgement: "We thank Jan Ellenberg, Leanne Strauss, Anusha Gopalan, and Jia Hui Li for critical feedback on the manuscript and the Life Science Editors for editing assistance.

Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are the neurons of the innermost layer of the\r\nmammal retina, and they transmit visual information to the rest of the brain.\r\nIt has been shown that RGCs vary in their morphology and genetic profiles, moreover they can\r\nbe unambiguously grouped into subtypes that share the same morphological and/or molecular\r\nproperties. However, in terms of RGCs function, it remains unclear how many distinct types\r\nthere are and what response properties their typology relies on. Even given the recent studies\r\nthat successfully classified RGCs in a patch of the retina [1] and in scotopic conditions [2], the\r\nquestion remains whether the found subtypes persist across the entire retina.\r\nIn this work, using a novel imaging method, we show that, when sampled from a large portion\r\nof the retina, RGCs can not be clearly divided into functional subtypes. We found that in\r\nphotopic conditions, which implies more prominent natural scene statistic differences across\r\nthe visual field, response properties can be exhibited by cells differently depending on their\r\nlocation in the retina, which leads to formation of a gradient of features rather than distinct\r\nclasses.\r\nThis finding suggests that RGCs follow a global organization across the visual field of the\r\nanimal, adapting each RGC subtype to the requirements imposed by the natural scene statistics." alternative_title: - ISTA Master's Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Kseniia full_name: Kirillova, Kseniia id: 8e3f931e-dc85-11ea-9058-e7b957bf23f0 last_name: Kirillova citation: ama: Kirillova K.

In addition to patterning, morphogens also control tissue growth. However, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. We studied the role of morphogens in regulating tissue growth in the developing vertebrate neural tube. In this system, opposing morphogen gradients of Shh and BMP establish the dorsoventral pattern of neural progenitor domains. Perturbations in these morphogen pathways result in alterations in tissue growth and cell cycle progression, however, it has been unclear what cellular process is affected. To address this, we analysed the rates of cell proliferation and cell death in mouse mutants in which signaling is perturbed, as well as in chick neural plate explants exposed to defined concentrations of signaling activators or inhibitors. Our results indicated that the rate of cell proliferation was not altered in these assays. By contrast, both the Shh and BMP signaling pathways had profound effects on neural progenitor survival. Our results indicate that these pathways synergise to promote cell survival within neural progenitors. Consistent with this, we found that progenitors within the intermediate region of the neural tube, where the combined levels of Shh and BMP are the lowest, are most prone to cell death when signaling activity is inhibited. In addition, we found that downregulation of Shh results in increased apoptosis within the roof plate, which is the dorsal source of BMP ligand production. This revealed a cross-interaction between the Shh and BMP morphogen signaling pathways that may be relevant for understanding how gradients scale in neural tubes with different overall sizes. We further studied the mechanism acting downstream of Shh in cell survival regulation using genetic and genomic approaches. We propose that Shh transcriptionally regulates a non-canonical apoptotic pathway. Altogether, our study points to a novel role of opposing morphogen gradients in tissue size regulation and provides new insights into complex interactions between Shh and BMP signaling gradients in the neural tube. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: Bio - _id: PreCl alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Katarzyna full_name: Kuzmicz-Kowalska, Katarzyna id: 4CED352A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Kuzmicz-Kowalska citation: ama: Kuzmicz-Kowalska K.

Such changes result from tension dynamics at cell contacts or cellular jamming. Yet, in many cases, the cellular mechanisms controlling the physical state of growing tissues are unclear. We found that at early developmental stages, the epithelium in the developing mouse spinal cord maintains both high junctional tension and high fluidity. This is achieved via a mechanism in which interkinetic nuclear movements generate cell area dynamics that drive extensive cell rearrangements. Over time, the cell proliferation rate declines, effectively solidifying the tissue. Thus, unlike well-studied jamming transitions, the solidification uncovered here resembles a glass transition that depends on the dynamical stresses generated by proliferation and differentiation. Our finding that the fluidity of developing epithelia is linked to interkinetic nuclear movements and the dynamics of growth is likely to be relevant to multiple developing tissues. acknowledgement: 'We thank S.

Distinct cellular processes such as cell division and cell rearrangements underlie tissue morphogenesis. Yet how the distinct processes are controlled and coordinated, and how they contribute to morphogenesis is poorly understood. In our study, we addressed these questions using the developing mouse neural tube. This epithelial organ transforms from a flat epithelial sheet to an epithelial tube while increasing in size and undergoing morpho-gen-mediated patterning. The extent and mechanism of neural progenitor rearrangement within the developing mouse neuroepithelium is unknown. To investigate this, we per-formed high resolution lineage tracing analysis to quantify the extent of epithelial rear-rangement at different stages of neural tube development. We quantitatively described the relationship between apical cell size with cell cycle dependent interkinetic nuclear migra-tions (IKNM) and performed high cellular resolution live imaging of the neuroepithelium to study the dynamics of junctional remodeling. Furthermore, developed a vertex model of the neuroepithelium to investigate the quantitative contribution of cell proliferation, cell differentiation and mechanical properties to the epithelial rearrangement dynamics and validated the model predictions through functional experiments. Our analysis revealed that at early developmental stages, the apical cell area kinetics driven by IKNM induce high lev-els of cell rearrangements in a regime of high junctional tension and contractility. After E9.5, there is a sharp decline in the extent of cell rearrangements, suggesting that the epi-thelium transitions from a fluid-like to a solid-like state. We found that this transition is regulated by the growth rate of the tissue, rather than by changes in cell-cell adhesion and contractile forces. Overall, our study provides a quantitative description of the relationship between tissue growth, cell cycle dynamics, epithelia rearrangements and the emergent tissue material properties, and novel insights on how epithelial cell dynamics influences tissue morphogenesis. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: Bio - _id: LifeSc alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Laura full_name: Bocanegra, Laura id: 4896F754-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Bocanegra citation: ama: Bocanegra L.

Evolutionary pathways are neither directed nor deterministic, but rather an interplay between selection, migration, mutation, genetic drift and other environmental factors. Hybrid zones, as natural crossing experiments, offer a great opportunity to use cline analysis to deduce different evolutionary processes - for example, selection strength. Theoretical cline models, largely assuming uniform distribution of individuals, often lack the capability of incorporating population structure. Since in reality organisms mostly live in patchy distributions and their dispersal is hardly ever Gaussian, it is necessary to unravel the effect of these different elements of population structure on cline parameters and shape. In this thesis, I develop a simulation inspired by the A. majus hybrid zone of a single selected locus under frequency dependent selection. This simulation enables us to untangle the effects of different elements of population structure as for example a low-density center and long-range dispersal. This thesis is therefore a first step towards theoretically untangling the effects of different elements of population structure on cline parameters and shape.

These capabilities are made possible thanks to a variety of\r\nchanges in the brain throughout adulthood, regrouped under the term \"plasticity\". Some cells\r\nin the brain —neurons— and specifically changes in the connections between neurons, the\r\nsynapses, were shown to be crucial for the formation, selection, and consolidation of memories\r\nfrom past experiences. These ongoing changes of synapses across time are called synaptic\r\nplasticity. Understanding how a myriad of biochemical processes operating at individual\r\nsynapses can somehow work in concert to give rise to meaningful changes in behavior is a\r\nfascinating problem and an active area of research.\r\nHowever, the experimental search for the precise plasticity mechanisms at play in the brain\r\nis daunting, as it is difficult to control and observe synapses during learning. Theoretical\r\napproaches have thus been the default method to probe the plasticity-behavior connection. Such\r\nstudies attempt to extract unifying principles across synapses and model all observed synaptic\r\nchanges using plasticity rules: equations that govern the evolution of synaptic strengths across\r\ntime in neuronal network models. These rules can use many relevant quantities to determine\r\nthe magnitude of synaptic changes, such as the precise timings of pre- and postsynaptic\r\naction potentials, the recent neuronal activity levels, the state of neighboring synapses, etc.\r\nHowever, analytical studies rely heavily on human intuition and are forced to make simplifying\r\nassumptions about plasticity rules.\r\nIn this thesis, we aim to assist and augment human intuition in this search for plasticity rules.\r\nWe explore whether a numerical approach could automatically discover the plasticity rules\r\nthat elicit desired behaviors in large networks of interconnected neurons. This approach is\r\ndubbed meta-learning synaptic plasticity: learning plasticity rules which themselves will make\r\nneuronal networks learn how to solve a desired task. We first write all the potential plasticity\r\nmechanisms to consider using a single expression with adjustable parameters. We then optimize\r\nthese plasticity parameters using evolutionary strategies or Bayesian inference on tasks known\r\nto involve synaptic plasticity, such as familiarity detection and network stabilization.\r\nWe show that these automated approaches are powerful tools, able to complement established\r\nanalytical methods. By comprehensively screening plasticity rules at all synapse types in\r\nrealistic, spiking neuronal network models, we discover entire sets of degenerate plausible\r\nplasticity rules that reliably elicit memory-related behaviors. Our approaches allow for more\r\nrobust experimental predictions, by abstracting out the idiosyncrasies of individual plasticity\r\nrules, and provide fresh insights on synaptic plasticity in spiking network models.\r\n" alternative_title: - ISTA Thesis article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Basile J full_name: Confavreux, Basile J id: C7610134-B532-11EA-BD9F-F5753DDC885E last_name: Confavreux citation: ama: 'Confavreux BJ.

Using a novel statistical estimator and theoretical modeling, both developed in the framework of maximum entropy models, we reveal highly structured CA1 cell-cell interactions in male rats during open field exploration. The statistics of these interactions depend on whether the animal is in a familiar or novel environment. In both conditions the circuit interactions optimize the encoding of spatial information, but for regimes that differ in the informativeness of their spatial inputs. This structure facilitates linear decodability, making the information easy to read out by downstream circuits. Overall, our findings suggest that the efficient coding hypothesis is not only applicable to individual neuron properties in the sensory periphery, but also to neural interactions in the central brain. acknowledgement: M.N. was supported by the European Union Horizon 2020 Grant 665385.

Interfaces based on cryogenic cavity electro-optic systems are particularly promising, due to the direct interaction between microwave and optical fields in the quantum regime. Quantum optical control of superconducting microwave circuits has been precluded so far due to the weak electro-optical coupling as well as quasi-particles induced by the pump laser. Here we report the coherent control of a superconducting microwave cavity using laser pulses in a multimode electro-optical device at millikelvin temperature with near-unity cooperativity. Both the stationary and instantaneous responses of the microwave and optical modes comply with the coherent electro-optical interaction, and reveal only minuscule amount of excess back-action with an unanticipated time delay. Our demonstration enables wide ranges of applications beyond quantum transductions, from squeezing and quantum non-demolition measurements of microwave fields, to entanglement generation and hybrid quantum networks. acknowledgement: This work was supported by the European Research Council under grant agreement no. 758053 (ERC StG QUNNECT), the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement no. 899354 (FETopen SuperQuLAN), and the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) through BeyondC (F7105).

Classical data centers rely on fiber-optic interconnects to remove similar networking bottlenecks and to allow for reconfigurable, software-defined infrastructures. In the same spirit, ultra-cold electro-optic links have been proposed and used to generate qubit control signals, or to replace cryogenic readout electronics. So far, the latter suffered from either low efficiency, low bandwidth and the need for additional microwave drives, or breaking of Cooper pairs and qubit states. In this work we realize electro-optic microwave photonics at millikelvin temperatures to implement a radio-over-fiber qubit readout that does not require any active or passive cryogenic microwave equipment. We demonstrate all-optical single-shot-readout by means of the Jaynes-Cummings nonlinearity in a circulator-free readout scheme. Importantly, we do not observe any direct radiation impact on the qubit state as verified with high-fidelity quantum-non-demolition measurements despite the absence of shielding elements. This compatibility between superconducting circuits and telecom wavelength light is not only a prerequisite to establish modular quantum networks, it is also relevant for multiplexed readout of superconducting photon detectors and classical superconducting logic. Moreover, this experiment showcases the potential of electro-optic radiometry in harsh environments - an electronics-free sensing principle that extends into the THz regime with applications in radio astronomy, planetary missions and earth observation. acknowledgement: "We thank F.

Whereas it is well established that single-cell migration is often guided by gradients of chemokines and other chemoattractants, it remains poorly understood how these gradients are generated, maintained, and modulated. By combining experimental data with theory on leukocyte chemotaxis guided by the G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) CCR7, we demonstrate that in addition to its role as the sensory receptor that steers migration, CCR7 also acts as a generator and a modulator of chemotactic gradients. Upon exposure to the CCR7 ligand CCL19, dendritic cells (DCs) effectively internalize the receptor and ligand as part of the canonical GPCR desensitization response. We show that CCR7 internalization also acts as an effective sink for the chemoattractant, dynamically shaping the spatiotemporal distribution of the chemokine. This mechanism drives complex collective migration patterns, enabling DCs to create or sharpen chemotactic gradients. We further show that these self-generated gradients can sustain the long-range guidance of DCs, adapt collective migration patterns to the size and geometry of the environment, and provide a guidance cue for other comigrating cells. Such a dual role of CCR7 as a GPCR that both senses and consumes its ligand can thus provide a novel mode of cellular self-organization. acknowledgement: "We thank I. de Vries and the Scientific Service Units (Life Sciences, Bioimaging, Nanofabrication, Preclinical and Miba Machine Shop) of the Institute of Science and Technology Austria for excellent support, as well as all the rotation students assisting in the laboratory work (B.
