Nucleation of symmetric domains in the coupled leaflets of a bilayer
JJ Williamson, PD Olmsted - Soft Matter, 2015 - pubs.rsc.org
We study the kinetics governing the attainment of inter-leaflet domain symmetry in a phase-

Kinetics of symmetry and asymmetry in a phase-separating bilayer membrane
JJ Williamson, PD Olmsted - Physical Review E, 2015 - APS
We simulate a phase-separating bilayer in which the leaflets experience a direct coupling
