Natural convection in the cytoplasm: Theoretical predictions of buoyancy-driven flows inside a cell
Nikhil Desai, Weida Liao, Eric Lauga
The existence of temperature gradients within eukaryotic cells has been postulated as a source of natural convection in the cytoplasm, i.e. bulk fluid motion as a result of tempera…

Theoretical model of confined thermoviscous flows for artificial cytoplasmic streaming
Weida Liao, Elena Erben, Moritz Kreysing +1
Recent experiments in cell biology have probed the impact of artificially-induced intracellular flows in the spatiotemporal organisation of cells and organisms. In these experiment…
