Statistical mechanics of pluripotency

Statistical mechanics of pluripotency
Statistical mechanics of pluripotency
Recent reports using single cell profiling have indicated a remarkably dynamic view of pluripotent stem cell identity. Here, we argue that the pluripotent state is not well defined at the single cell level, but rather is a statistical property of stem cell populations, amenable to analysis using the tools of statistical mechanics and information theory.

Abstract

Recent reports using single cell profiling have indicated a remarkably dynamic view of pluripotent stem cell identity. Here, we argue that the pluripotent state is not well defined at the single cell level, but rather is a statistical property of stem cell populations, amenable to analysis using the tools of statistical mechanics and information theory.
