Instability of microbial droplets growing on viscous substrates
Vicente Gomez Herrera, Scott Weady
We develop and analyze a model for a flat microbial droplet growing on the surface of a three-dimensional viscous fluid. The model describes growth-induced stresses at the fluid su…

A first-principles geometric model for dynamics of motor-driven centrosomal asters
Yuan-Nan Young, Vicente Gomez Herrera, Helena Z. Huan +2
The centrosomal aster is a mobile cellular organelle that exerts and transmits forces necessary for nuclear migration and spindle positioning. Recent experimental and theoretical s…
