Condensates can not only bend biomembranes, but also cut them (fission). Check out the first evidence in our @nature paper: t.ly/qOkcX
Great collaboration between maths, physics and biology @AgudoCanalejo @XiaofengFangLab @KnorrLab @csbdresden

Great collaboration with @WebersGroup. Looking forward to explore the interaction of #condensates and #membranes in fluid flow by numerical simulations.
Condensates + deformable membranes = exciting phenomena ... now, ready to be studied theoretically using a great method develop by the Aland group. Check out this recent preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2312.01817 And stay tuned for more coming up 😀View quoted post on X
Ultrafast #Microswimmer: lipid-coated microbubbles can swim several meters per second via #buckling, activated by ultrasound. We published a combined experimental and numerical study in Nature Comm. Eng. nature.com/articles/s4417… @TUBergakademie @DresdenHTW

#Chiral forces on viscoelastic surfaces can self-enhance and induce neck formation. This might help the #actin #cortex to drive cell division. Great collaboration with @FischerFriedLab: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108…

Did you know that #chiral #flows can induce neck formation in #viscoelastic surfaces? This is how chiral flows in the #actin #cortex might support constriction during cell division. Check out our new publication under
