Density and shape govern the dynamical self-organization of active matter on a droplet
Romain Leroux, Andre Estevez-Torres, Raphael Voituriez +3
Morphogenesis emerges from dynamic feedback among geometry, mechanics, and chemistry; however, disentangling these contributions in living systems remains challenging. Here, we foc…

Collective dynamics of trail-interacting particles
Paul Pineau, Samuel Bell, Raphaël Voituriez +1
Trail interactions occur when past particle trajectories bias future motion, rendering the system out of thermodynamic equilibrium. While such systems are abundant in nature, their…
