Dual antagonistic role of motor proteins in fluidizing active networks
Bibi Najma, Minu Varghese, Lev Tsidilkovski +3
Cells accomplish diverse functions using the same molecular building blocks, from setting up cytoplasmic flows to generating mechanical forces. In particular, transitions between t…
The 2019 Motile Active Matter Roadmap
Gerhard Gompper, Roland G. Winkler, Thomas Speck +34
Activity and autonomous motion are fundamental in living and engineering systems. This has stimulated the new field of active matter in recent years, which focuses on the physical…
Topological structure and dynamics of three dimensional active nematics
Guillaume Duclos, Raymond Adkins, Debarghya Banerjee +13
Point-like motile topological defects control the universal dynamics of diverse two-dimensional active nematics ranging from shaken granular rods to cellular monolayers. A comparab…
Turbulent dynamics of epithelial cell cultures
C. Blanch-Mercader, V. Yashunsky, S. Garcia +3
In vitro epithelial monolayers exhibit a rich repertoire of collective dynamical behaviours according to microenvironment mechanical features. We investigate the statistical and dy…
Tissue fusion over non-adhering surfaces
V. Nier, M. Deforet, G. Duclos +4
Tissue fusion eliminates physical voids in a tissue to form a continuous structure and is central to many processes in development and repair. Fusion events in vivo, particularly i…
