Mushroom spore dispersal by convectively-driven winds
Emilie Dressaire, Lisa Yamada, Boya Song +1
Thousands of fungal species rely on mushroom spores to spread across landscapes. It has long been thought that spores depend on favorable airflows for dispersal -- that active cont…
Optimal occlusion uniformly partitions red blood cells fluxes within a microvascular network
Shyr-Shea Chang, Shenyinying Tu, Kyung In Baek +6
In animals, gas exchange between blood and tissues occurs in narrow vessels, whose diameter is comparable to that of a red blood cell. Red blood cells must deform to squeeze throug…
Defining individual size in the model filamentous fungus
Linda Ma, Boya Song, Thomas Curran +3
It is challenging to apply the tenets of individuality to filamentous fungi: a fungal mycelium can contain millions of genetically diverse but totipotent nuclei, each capable of fo…
Direct Measurement of Particle Inertial Migration in Rectangular Microchannels
Kaitlyn Hood, Soroush Kahkeshani, Dino Di Carlo +1
Particles traveling at high velocities through microfluidic channels migrate from their starting streamlines due to inertial lift forces. Theories predict different scaling laws fo…
