bioRxiv
. 2025 Mar;
PMID: 40060478
Significance Statement: Cellular structures continuously self-renew, with new material constantly being added and removed while maintaining overall structural stability. This is particularly true for the actin cytoskeleton, whose components are...

. 2024 Nov;
121(49):e2406985121.
PMID: 39589887
The internal organization of cells is largely determined by the architecture and orientation of the microtubule network. Microtubules serve as polar tracks for the selective transport of specific molecular motors...

Nat Mater
. 2022 Dec;
22(2):260-268.
PMID: 36585435
Much like passive materials, active systems can be affected by the presence of imperfections in their microscopic order, called defects, that influence macroscopic properties. This suggests the possibility to steer...

Nat Commun
. 2022 May;
13(1):2579.
PMID: 35546549
Active matter systems feature the ability to form collective patterns as observed in a plethora of living systems, from schools of fish to swimming bacteria. While many of these systems...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2021 Feb;
118(6).
PMID: 33536338
Collective motion of active matter is ubiquitously observed, ranging from propelled colloids to flocks of bird, and often features the formation of complex structures composed of agents moving coherently. However,...

PMID: 31164651
Motile cells often explore natural environments characterized by a high degree of structural complexity. Moreover cell motility is also intrinsically noisy due to spontaneous random reorientations and speed fluctuations. This...
