Curvature-mediated Programming of Liquid Crystal Microflows

Kamil Fedorowicz, Robert Prosser, Anupam Sengupta

Using experiments and numerical simulations, we demonstrate that the curvature of microscale conduits allow programming of liquid crystal (LC) flows. Focusing on a nematic LC flowi…

Planktonic Active Matter

Anupam Sengupta

Planktonic active matter represents an emergent system spanning different scales: individual, population and community; and complexity arising from sub-cellular and cellular to col…

Drying of Bio-colloidal Sessile Droplets: Advances, Applications, and Perspectives

Anusuya Pal, Amalesh Gope, Anupam Sengupta

Drying of biologically-relevant sessile droplets, including passive systems (like DNA and proteins), as well as active microbial systems comprising bacteria and algae, have garnere…

Collective mechano-response dynamically tunes cell-size distributions in growing bacterial colonies

René Wittmann, G. H. Philipp Nguyen, Hartmut Löwen +2

Mechanical stresses stemming from environmental factors are a key determinant of cellular behavior and physiology. Yet, the role of self-induced biomechanical stresses in growing b…

Spatio-temporal programming of lyotropic phase transition in nanoporous microfluidic confinements

Vamseekrishna Ulaganathan, Anupam Sengupta

Self-assembly of simple molecules into complex phases can be driven by physical constraints, for instance, due to selective molecular uptake by nanoporous surfaces. Despite the sig…

Steering self-organisation through confinement

Nuno A. M. Araújo, Liesbeth M. C. Janssen, Thomas Barois +26

Self-organisation is the spontaneous emergence of spatio-temporal structures and patterns from the interaction of smaller individual units. Examples are found across many scales in…
