Patterning of multicomponent elastic shells by Gaussian curvature
Curt Waltmann, Ahis Shrestha, Monica Olvera de la Cruz
Recent findings suggest that shell protein distribution and morphology of bacterial microcompartments regulate the chemical fluxes facilitating reactions which dictate their biolog…

Enhanced phoretic self-propulsion of active colloids through surface charge asymmetry
Ahis Shrestha, Monica Olvera de la Cruz
Charged colloidal particles propel themselves through asymmetric fluxes of chemically generated ions on their surface. We show that asymmetry in the surface charge distribution int…
