Preserving the correct dynamics at the coarse-grained (CG) level is a pressing problem in
the development of systematic CG models in soft matter simulation. Starting from the seminal …

The phenomenon of light's momentum was first observed in the laboratory at the beginning
of the twentieth century, and its potential for manipulating microscopic particles was …

Liquid-liquid phase separation of multivalent proteins and RNAs drives the formation of
biomolecular condensates that facilitate membrane-free compartmentalization of subcellular …

New developments in the microrheology of complex fluids are considered. Firstly the
requirements for a simple modern particle tracking microrheology experiment are …

Many intracellular membraneless organelles (MLOs) appear to adapt a hierarchical
multicompartment organization for efficient coordination of highly complex reaction …

During the last decade, optical tweezers have been transformed by the combined availability
of spatial light modulators and the speed of low-cost computing to drive them. Holographic …

Biomolecular condensates, formed through phase separation, are upending our
understanding in much of molecular, cell, and developmental biology. There is an urgent …

The motion of nanoparticles in a polymer matrix is dictated by the intricate coupling of the
nanoparticles and surrounding polymers. Various length-and time-scale dependent features …

We present a data analysis procedure that provides the solution to a long-standing issue in
microrheology studies, ie the evaluation of the fluids' linear viscoelastic properties from the …

In this work, we present new insights related to a debate on the morphological structure of
hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) molecules when dissolved in water, ie, whether HEC adopts a …
