[Biophysics seminar] Tanmoy Sarkar: “A minimal lattice model of lipid membranes with liquid-ordered domains”
[Biophysics seminar] Tanmoy Sarkar: “A minimal lattice model of lipid membranes with liquid-ordered domains”
Binary or ternary mixtures of lipids and cholesterol featuring liquid-ordered (Lo) domains serve as model systems for studying the formation of lipid rafts in complex biological membranes. In the talk, I will present a new lattice model of a binary mixture of saturated DPPC … Read More

[Biophysics seminar] Clement Zankoc: “Active Instability and Nonlinear Dynamics of Cell-Cell Junctions”
[Biophysics seminar] Clement Zankoc: “Active Instability and Nonlinear Dynamics of Cell-Cell Junctions”
Active cell-junction remodeling is important for tissue morphogenesis, yet its underlying physics is not understood. We study a mechanical model that describes junctions as dynamic active force dipoles. Their instability can trigger cell intercalations by a critical collapse. Nonlinearities in … Read More
