Dr Antonio Lamura (IAC CNR)27/09/2016, 17:20A deep understanding of the dynamics and rheology of suspensions of vesicles, cells, and capsules is relevant for different applications, ranging from soft glasses to blood flow [1]. I will present the study of suspensions of fluid vesicles by a combination of molecular dynamics and mesoscale hydrodynamics simulations (multi-particle collision dynamics) in two dimensions [2],...Go to contribution page

Dr Matteo Osella (University of Torino)27/09/2016, 17:40The coordination of cell growth and division is a long-standing problem in biology. In particular, the mechanisms that ensure size homeostasis and, at the same time, adapt cell growth and size to the environment have been the subject of intense research. However, the answers were traditionally hindered by limited statistics on single cells. Contemporary experimental techniques overcome this...Go to contribution page

Roberto Meloni (MI)27/09/2016, 18:00The description of the dynamics of a complex, high-dimensional system in terms of a low-dimensional set of collective variables (CVs) Ys can be fruitful if the low dimensional representation satisfies a Langevin equation, where drift and diffusion coefficients depend only on the value of Y, but not on the microscopic conformation on which Y has been calculated. We present here a...Go to contribution page
