Quantifying cell shape and density fluctuations in epithelial tissue in vivo

Jake Turley, Helen Weavers, Paul Martin +2

Controlling changes in cell shape are crucial for many biological processes, such as tissue development and wound healing. Tissues typically are heterogeneous with a variety of cel…

Exotic rheology of materials with active rearrangements

Aondoyima Ioratim-Uba, Tanniemola B. Liverpool, Silke Henkes

The flow of biological tissues during development is controlled through the active stresses generated by cells interacting with their mechanical environment in the tissue. Many dev…

Correlated cell movements drive epithelial finger formation

Sander C. Kammeraat, Yann-Edwin Keta, Paul Appleton +5

Epithelia form protective barriers in multicellular organisms. To maintain homeostasis, they must be able to regenerate and heal damaged areas. This occurs through collective cell…

The physics and mathematics of living and dying matter

Tanniemola B. Liverpool, Kristian K. Müller-Nedebock, Xichen Chao +1

We introduce and study a class of active matter models in which we keep track of fuel (stored energy) consumption. They are by construction, thermodynamically consistent. Using the…

Cyclically sheared colloidal gels: structural change and delayed failure time

Himangsu Bhaumik, James E. Hallett, Tanniemola B. Liverpool +2

We present experiments and simulations on cyclically sheared colloidal gels, and probe their behaviour on several different length scales. The shearing induces structural changes i…

Breakup of an active chiral fluid

Luke Neville, Jens Eggers, Tanniemola B. Liverpool

The nonlinear breakup dynamics of a strip of active chiral fluid is considered, and it is shown that the strip thickness goes to zero as a power law in finite time. Applying slende…
