Neuronal Growth as Diffusion in an Effective Potential
Daniel J. Rizzo, James D. White, Elise Spedden +4
Current understanding of neuronal growth is mostly qualitative, as the staggering number of physical and chemical guidance cues involved prohibit a fully quantitative description o…
Simulating defect textures on coalescing nematic shells
Badel L. Mbanga, Kate K. Voorhes, Timothy J. Atherton
Two nematic shells brought in contact coalesce in order to reduce their interfacial tension. This process proceeds through the creation of a liquid neck-like bridge through which t…
Neuronal Alignment On Asymmetric Textured Surfaces
Ross Beighley, Elise M. Spedden, Koray Sekeroglu +3
Axonal growth and the formation of synaptic connections are key steps in the development of the nervous system. Here we present experimental and theoretical results on axonal growt…
