Check out new work by Jordan in collaboration with Aaron Dinner and @PVlahovska ! https://t.co/bvjvTo4Dft We consider minimal protocels under non-equilibrium growth conditions and extract low (2) dimensional rules to describe their shapes.

Uncovering the rules governing the nonequilibrium dynamics of the membranes that define biological cells is of central importance to understanding the physics of living systems. We theoretically...

Ever wonder how the first cells took shape? Researchers in the @suri_lab simulated early 'protocells' and found they grow and change shape when they absorb materials from their surroundings. They even made a simple rule to predict this. A cool glimpse into how basic physics
