Odd dynamics of living chiral crystals
Tzer Han Tan, Alexander Mietke, Junang Li +6
Active crystals are highly ordered structures that emerge from the self-organization of motile objects, and have been widely studied in synthetic and bacterial active matter. Wheth…
Actively crosslinked microtubule networks: mechanics, dynamics and filament sliding
Sebastian Fürthauer, Bezia Lemma, Peter J. Foster +5
Cytoskeletal networks are foundational examples of active matter and central to self-organized structures in the cell. In vivo, these networks are active and heavily crosslinked. R…
Measuring and modeling polymer gradients argues that spindle microtubules regulate their own nucleation
Bryan Kaye, Olivia Stiehl, Peter J. Foster +3
Spindles are self-organized microtubule-based structures that segregate chromosomes during cell division. The mass of the spindle is controlled by the balance between microtubule t…
Connecting macroscopic dynamics with microscopic properties in active microtubule network contraction
Peter J. Foster, Wen Yan, Sebastian Fürthauer +2
The cellular cytoskeleton is an active material, driven out of equilibrium by molecular motor proteins. It is not understood how the collective behaviors of cytoskeletal networks e…
Developing and Testing a Bayesian Analysis of Fluorescence Lifetime Measurements
Bryan Kaye, Peter J. Foster, Tae Yeon Yoo +1
FRET measurements can provide dynamic spatial information on length scales smaller than the diffraction limit of light. Several methods exist to measure FRET between fluorophores,…
