Polymer folding through active processes recreates features of genome organization

The paper investigates how active processes influence polymer folding, showing that activity patterns can lead to compartmentalization and long-range interactions in chromatin.

ATP driven diffusiophoresis: active cargo transport without motor proteins

The paper demonstrates a non-specific physical mechanism for active cargo transport using the MinDE protein system in E. coli, sorting cargo by size through diffusiophoresis.

Tissue flow through pores: a computational study

This study uses computer simulations to show how a bottleneck in a channel affects cell monolayer organization and motion, revealing fluid-like and solid-like behaviors.

Quasi-periodic migration of single cells on short microlanes

The paper studies quasi-periodic cell migration on microlanes and shows that a Cellular Potts model can recapitulate migration statistics with minimal cytoskeleton dynamics.

Cell based strain stiffening of a non-fibrous matrix as organizing principle for morphogenesis

The paper identifies a mechanism where endothelial cells form networks by mechanically stiffening a non-fibrous matrix, independent of chemical cues, and shows how matrix topology and cell contractility influence this process.

Bridging the gap between single-cell migration and collective dynamics

The paper presents a cellular-automaton model to study how cell functions influence collective migration across different system sizes, showing it can simulate up to 10^4 cells efficiently.
