An active contractile surface builds unstable ring patterns which assemble orthogonal to their predecessors @TUBergakademie @DresdenHtw #Biophysics
Condensates can not only bend biomembranes, but also cut them (fission). Check out the first evidence in our @nature paper: t.ly/qOkcX
Great collaboration between maths, physics and biology @AgudoCanalejo @XiaofengFangLab @KnorrLab @csbdresden
Great collaboration with @WebersGroup. Looking forward to explore the interaction of #condensates and #membranes in fluid flow by numerical simulations.
Condensates + deformable membranes = exciting phenomena ... now, ready to be studied theoretically using a great method develop by the Aland group. Check out this recent preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2312.01817 And stay tuned for more coming up 😀
Ultrafast #Microswimmer: lipid-coated microbubbles can swim several meters per second via #buckling, activated by ultrasound. We published a combined experimental and numerical study in Nature Comm. Eng. nature.com/articles/s44172-0… @TUBergakademie @DresdenHTW

#DevelopingTissues need to #pattern themselves. #ReactionDiffusion can generate such patterns with two #chemical species or more. We show now that two #timescales in #bulk and #shear #viscoelasticity are also sufficient for dynamic patterning

#Chiral forces on viscoelastic surfaces can self-enhance and induce neck formation. This might help the #actin #cortex to drive cell division. Great collaboration with @FischerFriedLab: iopscience.iop.org/article/1…
Did you know that #chiral #flows can induce neck formation in #viscoelastic surfaces? This is how chiral flows in the #actin #cortex might support constriction during cell division. Check out our new publication under

📣 We are hiring a new PhD student 👨🎓 to study the interplay between membrane and actin cortex tension upon induced cell deformation. Join us @PoLDresden and apply at digs-bb.de/join/phd-position…
The first PhD defense in the Aland-Lab! Marcel Mokbel defended his doctoral thesis “ALE Simulations of Elastic Surfaces in Flow” with flying colors last Thursday!
Eloy just developed the first #numerical method to simulate deforming #viscoelastic surfaces and thin films: t1p.de/jd02, now looking for interesting applications in #biophysics
2-3 PhD positions in numerical simulations are available in our group! If you are interested to do your PhD in #numerical #simulation with applications in biophysics, materials science or nanotechnology, goto: t1p.de/cy5j (deadline soon)

Corona project funded: Together with @JulianeSimmchen we are happy to start a project within the call "Corona Crisis and Beyond" from #volkswagenstifung. Looking forward to simulate killing the virus on photoactive microparticle surfaces

We just developed the first #numerical method for wetting on #viscoelastic substrates and provide first #simulations of stick-slip motion and #cheerios effect between nearby droplets: bit.ly/32hnjfR
Now it is official; we move to #TUFreiberg. Sebastian Aland accepts W3 professorship in #numerical #analysis at @TUBergakademie from April 2021. Thank you @DresdenHtw for the great support in previous years. Collaboration will go on!
