@alisonkickuth.bsky.socialBloop 🫧 bloop 🫧 bloop 🫧 Fluid-filled lumens are everywhere in our body How do they get soooo big? We find that osmotic pressure vastly dominates mechanical forces in controlling lumen swelling in mouse embryos biorxiv.org/content/10.6... @louise-dagher.bsky.social @matteo-bassanini.bsky.social
Show PostVery happy to see our work highlighted by @natcellbio.nature.com. A great team effort and a fascinating example of how a simple physical principle can connect mitosis across eukaryotes! @lgudlin.bsky.social, @krunovuk.bsky.social, @kopslab.bsky.social
Show PostBig thanks to the people involved. @brugueslab.bsky.social, Vincent Wattiez, Étienne Fodor, Francesco Romanò
Show PostThe ordered state moves faster while consuming less power, as dissipation shifts from internal losses toward interactions with the environment. We then harness this transferred power to perform mechanical work with an active engine.
Show PostWhat could you learn about a collective system if you could resolve all of its energetic pathways? We track energy flow as active spheres transition from disordered motion to collective order. And the energetic state changes just as their motion. arxiv.org/abs/2609.31059
