Alfredo Sciortino - Microtubules as Maxwell's demons: transport-based phase-separation of a binary..
Description:
Explore a 24-minute conference talk on the self-organization of microtubules and molecular motors in living cells. Delve into how a minimal system of microtubules and two types of molecular motors can create polarity-sorted domains through a feedback loop of directed transport and force exertion. Discover how this process relates to Maxwell's demon and learn about a continuous model demonstrating how active transport can lead to phase separation and the creation of ordered structures on larger scales. Gain insights into the fundamental mechanisms behind cellular cargo delivery and the organization of the cytoskeletal network.
