Active surface flows accelerate the coarsening of lipid membrane domains

Daniel P. Arnold, Aakanksha Gubbala, Sho C. Takatori

Phase separation of multicomponent lipid membranes is characterized by the nucleation and coarsening of circular membrane domains that grow slowly in time as , follow…

Dynamic interfaces for contact-time control of colloidal interactions

Yaxin Xu, Kyu Hwan Choi, Sachit G. Nagella +1

Understanding multibody interactions between colloidal particles out of equilibrium has a profound impact on dynamical processes such as colloidal self assembly. However, tradition…

Antibody binding reports spatial heterogeneities in cell membrane organization

Daniel P. Arnold, Yaxin Xu, Sho C. Takatori

The spatial organization of cell membrane glycoproteins and glycolipids is critical for mediating the binding of ligands, receptors, and macromolecules on the plasma membrane. Howe…

Enhanced dispersion in an oscillating array of harmonic traps

Joseph M. Barakat, Sho C. Takatori

Experiment, theory, and simulation are employed to understand the dispersion of colloidal particles in a periodic array of oscillating harmonic traps generated by optical tweezers.…

Motility-induced buckling and glassy dynamics regulate three-dimensional transitions of bacterial monolayers

Sho C. Takatori, Kranthi K. Mandadapu

Many mature bacterial colonies and biofilms are complex three-dimensional (3D) structures. One key step in their developmental program is a transition from a two-dimensional (2D) m…

Active Contact Forces Drive Non-Equilibrium Fluctuations in Membrane Vesicles

Sho C. Takatori, Amaresh Sahu

We analyze the non-equilibrium shape fluctuations of giant unilamellar vesicles encapsulating motile bacteria. Owing to bacteria--membrane collisions, we experimentally observe a s…

Inertial Effects on the Stress Generation of Active Fluids

Sho C. Takatori, John F. Brady

Suspensions of self-propelled bodies generate a unique mechanical stress owing to their motility that impacts their large-scale collective behavior. For microswimmers suspended in…

Towards a 'Thermodynamics' of Active Matter

Sho C. Takatori, John F. Brady

Self-propulsion allows living systems to display unusual collective behavior. Unlike passive systems in thermal equilibrium, active matter systems are not constrained by convention…
