🐜Ho pots saber tot d'una formiga, però això no t'ajuda a saber com és un formiguer. 🚘Entendre un motor no t'ajuda a entendre els embussos de trànsit. 📖Llegeix-me a Núvol i t'explico per què “el tot és molt més que la suma de les parts”. Neurones Fregides 🍳

🪇Nou vídeo! Aquest cop faig ressò d'una notícia científica: Han trobat com fer la pell transparent amb el pigment dels Doritos! 🫥😱 youtu.be/G7slf5lm6Kw?si… Neurones Fregides 🍳

Cells move in groups often led by specialised leader cells. Work Nature Physics by Ricard Alert Zenón MPI-PKS Dresden & collaborators shows that leader cells cannot autonomously guide groups: followers must contribute to build a global force asymmetry for group motion. doi.org/10.1038/s41567…

Analytical calculations and numerical sampling reveals the effects of spatially disordered growth on buckling instability of elastic rods, showing how biological systems could trigger or avoid buckling and thereby control a key driver of morphogenesis. 🔗 go.aps.org/4f6C2xr

Check our new paper Physical Review E showing how spatial variability in growth affects the buckling transition! Useful way for tissues to control buckling just by localizing growth. With Rahul G. Ramachandran and Pierre Haas MPI-PKS Dresden. See Pierre's thread below! journals.aps.org/pre/abstract/1…
