How far from equilibrium is active matter?

Étienne Fodor, Cesare Nardini, Mike E. Cates +3

Active matter systems are driven out of thermal equilibrium by a lack of generalized Stokes-Einstein relation between injection and dissipation of energy at the microscopic scale.…

Active cage model of glassy dynamics

Étienne Fodor, Hisao Hayakawa, Paolo Visco +1

We build up a phenomenological picture in terms of the effective dynamics of a tracer confined in a cage experiencing random hops to capture somec haracteristics of glassy systems.…

Spatial fluctuations at vertices of epithelial layers: quantification of regulation by Rho pathway

É. Fodor, V. Mehandia, J. Comelles +5

In living matter, shape fluctuations induced by acto-myosin are usually studied in vitro via reconstituted gels, whose properties are controlled by changing the concentrations of a…

Active mechanics reveal molecular-scale force kinetics in living oocytes

Wylie W. Ahmed, Etienne Fodor, Maria Almonacid +6

Active diffusion of intracellular components is emerging as an important process in cell biology. This process is mediated by complex assemblies of molecular motors and cytoskeleta…

Activity driven fluctuations in living cells

É. Fodor, M. Guo, N. S. Gov +3

We propose a model for the dynamics of a probe embedded in a living cell, where both thermal fluctuations and nonequilibrium activity coexist. The model is based on a confining har…

Generalized Langevin Equation with Hydrodynamic Backflow: Equilibrium Properties

Étienne Fodor, Denis S. Grebenkov, Paolo Visco +1

We review equilibrium properties for the dynamics of a single particle evolving in a visco--elastic medium under the effect of hydrodynamic backflow which includes added mass and B…
