Hydrodynamic stability and pattern formation in hexatic epithelial layers
Josep-Maria Armengol-Collado, Leonardo Puggioni, Livio N. Carenza +1
We investigate the hydrodynamic stability and the formation of patterns in a continuum model of epithelial layers, able to account for the interplay between mechanical activity, la…
Collective migration and topological phase transitions in confluent epithelia
Leonardo Puggioni, Dimitrios Krommydas, Luca Giomi
Collective epithelial migration leverages on topological rearrangements of the intercellular junctions, which allow cells to intercalate without loosing confluency. In silico studi…
Cellular geometry controls the efficiency of motile sperm aggregates
D. J. G. Pearce, L. A. Hoogerbrugge, K. A. Hook +2
Teams of cooperating sperm have been found across several vertebrate and invertebrate species, ranging from sperm pairs to massive aggregates containing hundreds of cells. Although…
Geometrical control of active turbulence in curved topographies
D. J. G. Pearce, Perry W. Ellis, Alberto Fernandez-Nieves +1
We investigate the turbulent dynamics of a two-dimensional active nematic liquid crystal con- strained on a curved surface. Using a combination of hydrodynamic and particle-based s…
