Intestinal villi and crypts density maximizing nutrient absorption
Martin Garic, Rohan Vernekar, Dácil I. Yánez Martín +3
The villi and crypts of the gastrointestinal tract increase the effective surface area of the intestinal mucosa, potentially enhancing nutrient absorption. It is commonly assumed t…
Hydrodynamics in a villi-patterned channel due to pendular-wave activity
Rohan Vernekar, Faisal Ahmad, Martin Garic +4
Inspired by small intestine motility, we investigate the flow induced by a propagating pendular-wave along the walls of a channel lined with rigid, villi-like microstructures. The…
How host mobility patterns shape antigenic escape during viral-immune co-evolution
Natalie Blot, Caelan Brooks, Daniel W. Swartz +6
Viruses like influenza have long coevolved with host immune systems, gradually shaping the evolutionary trajectory of these pathogens. Host immune systems develop immunity against…
