Light-induced cortical excitability reveals programmable shape dynamics in starfish oocytes
Jinghui Liu, Tom Burkart, Alexander Ziepke +6
Chemo-mechanical waves on active deformable surfaces are a key component for many vital cellular functions. In particular, these waves play a major role in force generation and lon…
