Inferring the dynamics of underdamped stochastic systems
David B. Brückner, Pierre Ronceray, Chase P. Broedersz
Many complex systems, ranging from migrating cells to animal groups, exhibit stochastic dynamics described by the underdamped Langevin equation. Inferring such an equation of motio…

Inferring three-body interactions in cell migration dynamics
Agathe Jouneau, Tom Brandstätter, Bram Hoogland +2
In active matter and living matter, such as clusters of migrating cells, collective dynamics emerges from the underlying interactions. A common assumption of theoretical descriptio…

Data-driven theory reveals protrusion and polarity interactions governing collision behavior of distinct motile cells
Tom Brandstätter, Emily Brieger, David B. Brückner +3
The migration behavior of colliding cells is critically determined by transient contact-interactions. During these interactions, the motility machinery, including the front-rear po…
