Self-organization of actively forced slender fibers (microtubules) immersed in a fluid (cytoplasm) generates coherent flow in 3D confinements (cells). Our study featured in @NaturePhysics shows that using large scale simulations and live imaging of fruit fly oocytes.

How do we construct the connectivity between loci of chromosome marked with the same color? We propose an algorithm founded on polymer physics in this work with @AsheshGhosh1 , Alistair Boettiger, and @ASpakowitz out in @BiophysJ

How does spatial and temporal correlation of active forces impact structure and dynamics of biopolymers? We adapt the physics of flexible polymers and demonstrate using an e.g. of point fluctuation in this work with @AsheshGhosh1 and @ASpakowitz now online in @softmatter (1/2)

How do fruit flies maintain left-right symmetry during gastrulation? We show that using genetic perturbation, light sheet microscopy and tissue cartography. It was exciting to be part of this work with @celia_smits and Stas in collaboration with Vishank and @StreichanS .

Really pleased to share my own paper for once, just out in Current Biology! We looked at bilateral symmetry during Drosophila gastrulation. I mainly recommend reading it for the beautiful SVD analysis @SayantanD2 performed though.

My upcoming research group plans to work on building computational models for self-organization in biological systems across scales with a vision of writing down the design principles of functional biomaterials. Here is a link to the website

I’m super excited to share my most recent work on germ fate specification! We optogenetically perturbed mesoderm invagination in Drosophila embryos to learn how cells choose between endodermal and mesodermal fates:

Excited to share updated FateMap paper in @Nature w @arjunrajlab . We show that diverse resistant fates can arise from homogenous cells upon drug exposure+ the fates over weeks/months in drug are decided even before drug addition @pennbioeng @NorthwesternU
