Benchmarking the flow of epithelial cell monolayer with self-aligning deformable active membranes
Marcos Pasa, Carine P. Beatrici, François Graner +2
Collective cell migration emerges from the interplay between motility, deformability and mechanical interactions, yet incorporating these ingredients into computationally efficient…

Collective ballistic motion explains fast aggregation in adhesive active matter
Emanuel F. Teixeira, Pablo de Castro, Carine P. Beatrici +2
Inspired by motile cells in tissue formation, we find that active systems of self-aligning adhesive particles undergo ballistic aggregation through a flocking transition. This kine…

Segregation in binary mixture with differential contraction among active rings
Emanuel F. Teixeira, Carine P. Beatrici, Heitor C. M. Fernandes +1
Cell cortex contraction is essential for shaping cells, enabling movement, ensuring proper division, maintaining tissue integrity, guiding development, and responding to mechanical…
