However, the mainstream approaches in interpretability usually use static approaches operating on a frozen model, without fully utilizing information about the data or the gradient signal during training. In this write-up, I outline a developmental perspective on interpretability, whose main idea is to focus on analyzing pretraining and finetuning statistics in addition to static evaluations. Three papers implementing different aspects of the idea are discussed: Michaud et al. (2023); Aden-Ali et al. (2026); Vafa et al.

In this talk, I will highlight our recent work on developing a platform for imaging live, growing biofilm at single-cell resolution, using <em>Vibrio cholerae </em>as the model organism. I will show how bacterial cells physically communicate with each other and the environment to form ordered architecture reminiscent of liquid crystals. Moreover, I will talk about our recent discovery that heterogeneity in gene expression leads to unexpected pattern formation in biofilm through a drag-based sorting mechanism. I will also highlight ongoing research in the lab on extending the imaging capability to more natural environments including marine animal hosts. I will end by showing our recent findings on the mechanical properties of the extracellular matrix that underlie the architecture of the biofilm.", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-05T13:16:32", "last_modification_date": "2026-06-05T10:13:57", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<a href=\"https://medicine.yale.edu/profile/jing-yan/\">Professor Jing Yan</a>, Assistant Professor, Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology, Yale University", "organizer": "<a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/alexandre.persat?lang=en\">Professor Alexandre Persat</a>", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120654/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/111/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71804, "title": "Coding Club for Girls in Luzern", "slug": "coding-club-for-girls-in-luzern-16", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/coding-club-for-girls-in-luzern-16", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33175/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33175/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33175/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-11-14", "end_date": "2026-11-28", "start_time": "09:30:00", "end_time": "16:00:00", "description": "<p>Eine App programmieren?
