Interface dynamics in tissue invasion

Nino Despeignes, Lila Sarfati, Marc Durand +1

We rely on a hydrodynamic description of living tissues to describe the interface separating two of them with distinct constitutive properties. Using the difference in their homeos…

Continuous limit of a discrete stochastic model of cell migration

Nino Despeignes, Marc Durand

We analytically derive the continuous limit of the Cellular Potts Model (CPM) for a one-dimensional cell subjected to constant and run-and-tumble driving forces. By coarse-graining…

Deflection and oscillations of an anchored elastic fiber embedded in a quasistatic two-dimensional foam flow

Adrien Pellé, Marc Durand

We study the deflection and fluctuations of a clamped elastic fiber embedded in 2D foam under quasistatic flow. At all times, the fiber conformation results from the elasto-capilla…

Network emergence and reorganization in confined slime moulds

Raphaël Saiseau, Valentin Busson, Laura Xénard +1

A fundamental question regarding biological transport networks is the interplay between the network development or reorganization and the flows it carries. We use Physarum polyceph…

Emergence of dynamic contractile patterns in slime mold confined in a ring geometry

Busson Valentin, Saiseau Raphaël, Durand Marc

Coordination of cytoplasmic flows on large scales in space and time are at the root of many cellular processes, including growth, migration or division. These flows are driven by o…

Large-scale simulations of biological cell sorting driven by differential adhesion follow diffusion-limited domain coalescence regime

Marc Durand

Cell sorting, whereby a heterogeneous cell mixture segregates and forms distinct homogeneous tissues, is one of the main collective cell behaviors at work during development. Altho…
