  text: Recently discovered nanofluidic memristors, have raised promises for the development
    of iontronics and neuromorphic computing with ions. Ionic memory effects are related
    to ion dynamics inside nanochannels, with timescales associated with the manifold
    physicochemical phenomena occurring at confined interfaces. Here, we explore experimentally
    the frequency-dependent current–voltage response of model nanochannels—namely
    glass nanopipettes—to investigate memory effects in ion transport. This characterisation,
    which we refer to as mem-spectrometry, highlights two characteristic frequencies,
    associated with short and long timescales of the order of 50 ms and 50 s in the
    present system. Whereas the former can be associated with ionic diffusion, very
    long timescales are difficult to explain with conventional transport phenomena.
    We develop a minimal model accounting for these mem-spectrometry results, pointing
    to surface charge regulation and ionic adsorption-desorption as possible origins
    for the long-term memory. Our work demonstrates the relevance of mem-spectrometry
    to highlight subtle ion transport properties in nanochannels, giving hereby new
    insights on the mechanisms governing ion transport and current rectification in
    charged conical nanopores.

  text: Theoretical studies have shown that stochasticity can affect the dynamics
    of ecosystems in counterintuitive ways. However, without knowing the equations
    governing the dynamics of populations or ecosystems, it is difficult to ascertain
    the role of stochasticity in real datasets. Therefore, the inverse problem of
    inferring the governing stochastic equations from datasets is important. Here,
    we present an equation discovery methodology that takes time series data of state
    variables as input and outputs a stochastic differential equation. We achieve
    this by combining traditional approaches from stochastic calculus with the equation
    discovery techniques. We demonstrate the generality of the method via several
    applications. First, we deliberately choose various stochastic models with fundamentally
    different governing equations, yet they produce nearly identical steady-state
    distributions. We show that we can recover the correct underlying equations, and
    thus infer the structure of their stability, accurately from the analysis of time
    series data alone. We demonstrate our method on two real-world datasets—fish schooling
    and single-cell migration—that have vastly different spatiotemporal scales and
    dynamics. We illustrate various limitations and potential pitfalls of the method
    and how to overcome them via diagnostic measures. Finally, we provide our open-source
    code via a package named PyDaDDy (Python Library for Data-Driven Dynamics).

  text: "Introduction: Acid-growth theory has been postulated in the 70s to explain
    the rapid elongation of plant cells in response to the hormone auxin. More recently,
    it has been demonstrated that activation of the proton ATPs pump (H+-ATPs) promoting
    acidification of the apoplast is the principal mechanism by which auxin and other
    hormones such as brassinosteroids (BR) induce cell elongation. Despite these advances,
    the impact of this acidification on the mechanical properties of the cell wall
    remained largely unexplored.\r\n\r\nMethods: Here, we use elongation assays of
    Arabidopsis thaliana hypocotyls and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) to correlate
    hormone-induced tissue elongation and local changes in cell wall mechanical properties.
    Furthermore, employing transgenic lines over-expressing Pectin Methyl Esterase
    (PME), along with calcium chelators, we investigate the effect of pectin modification
    in hormone-driven cell elongation.\r\n\r\nResults: We demonstrate that acidification
    of apoplast is necessary and sufficient to induce cell elongation through promoting
    cell wall softening. Moreover, we show that enhanced PME activity can induce both
    cell wall softening or stiffening in extracellular calcium dependent-manner and
    that tight control of PME activity is required for proper hypocotyl elongation.\r\n\r\nDiscussion:
    Our results confirm a dual role of PME in plant cell elongation. However, further
    investigation is needed to assess the status of pectin following short- or long-term
    PME treatments in order to determine if pectin methyl-esterification might promote
    its degradation as well as the role of PME inhibitors upon PME induction."

  text: Cell migration in narrow microenvironments occurs in numerous physiological
    processes. It involves successive cycles of confinement and release that drive
    important morphological changes. However, it remains unclear whether migrating
    cells can retain a memory of their past morphological states that could potentially
    facilitate their navigation through confined spaces. We demonstrate that local
    geometry governs a switch between two cell morphologies, thereby facilitating
    cell passage through long and narrow gaps. We combined cell migration assays on
    standardized microsystems with biophysical modelling and biochemical perturbations
    to show that migrating cells have a long-term memory of past confinement events.
    The morphological cell states correlate across transitions through actin cortex
    remodelling. These findings indicate that mechanical memory in migrating cells
    plays an active role in their migratory potential in confined environments.

  text: Cell and tissue movement in development, cancer invasion, and immune response
    relies on chemical or mechanical guidance cues. In many systems, this behavior
    is locally directed by self-generated signaling gradients rather than long-range,
    prepatterned cues. However, how heterogeneous mixtures of cells interact nonreciprocally
    and navigate through self-generated gradients remains largely unexplored. Here,
    we introduce a theoretical framework for the self-organized chemotaxis of heterogeneous
    cell populations. We find that the relative chemotactic sensitivities of different
    cell populations control their long-time coupling and comigration dynamics, with
    boundary conditions such as external cell and attractant reservoirs substantially
    influencing the migration patterns. Our model predicts an optimal parameter regime
    that enables robust and colocalized migration. We test our theoretical predictions
    with in vitro experiments demonstrating the comigration of distinct immune cell
    populations, and quantitatively reproduce observed migration patterns under wild-type
    and perturbed conditions. Interestingly, immune cell comigration occurs close
    to the predicted optimal regime. Finally, we incorporate mechanical interactions
    into our framework, revealing a nontrivial interplay between chemotactic and mechanical
    nonreciprocity in driving collective migration. Together, our findings suggest
    that self-generated chemotaxis is a robust strategy for the navigation of mixed
    cell populations.

  text: Homeostasis relies on a precise balance of fate choices between renewal and
    differentiation. Although progress has been done to characterize the dynamics
    of single-cell fate choices, their underlying mechanistic basis often remains
    unclear. Concentrating on skin epidermis as a paradigm for multilayered tissues
    with complex fate choices, we develop a 3D vertex-based model with proliferation
    in the basal layer, showing that mechanical competition for space naturally gives
    rise to homeostasis and neutral drift dynamics that are seen experimentally. We
    then explore the effect of introducing mechanical heterogeneities between cellular
    subpopulations. We uncover that relatively small tension heterogeneities, reflected
    by distinct morphological changes in single-cell shapes, can be sufficient to
    heavily tilt cellular dynamics towards exponential growth. We thus derive a master
    relationship between cell shape and long-term clonal dynamics, which we validated
    during basal cell carcinoma initiation in mouse epidermis. Altogether, we propose
    a theoretical framework to link mechanical forces, quantitative cellular morphologies
    and cellular fate outcomes in complex tissues.

  text: Haptotaxis is the process of directed cell migration along gradients of extracellular
    matrix density and is central to morphogenesis, immune responses and cancer invasion.
    It is commonly assumed that cells respond to these gradients by migrating directionally
    towards the regions of highest ligand density. In contrast with this view, here
    we show that cells exposed to micropatterned fibronectin gradients exhibit a wide
    range of complex trajectories, including directed haptotactic migration up the
    gradient but also linear oscillations and circles with extended periods of migration
    down the gradient. To explain this behaviour, we developed a biophysical model
    of haptotactic cell migration based on a coarse-grained molecular clutch model
    coupled to persistent stochastic polarity dynamics. Although initial haptotactic
    migration is explained by the differential friction at the front and back of the
    cell, the observed complex trajectories over longer timescales arise from the
    interplay between differential friction, persistence and physical confinement.
    Overall, our study reveals that confinement and persistence modulate the ability
    of cells to sense and respond to haptotactic cues and provides a framework for
    understanding how cells navigate complex environments.

  text: 'β-Barrel nanopores are involved in crucial biological processes, from ATP
    export in mitochondria to bacterial resistance, and represent a promising platform
    for emerging sequencing technologies. However, in contrast to ion channels, the
    understanding of the fundamental principles governing ion transport through these
    nanopores remains largely unexplored. Here we integrate experimental, numerical
    and theoretical approaches to elucidate ion transport mechanisms in β-barrel nanopores.
    We identify and characterize two distinct nonlinear phenomena: open-pore rectification
    and gating. Through extensive mutation analysis of aerolysin nanopores, we demonstrate
    that open-pore rectification is caused by ionic accumulation driven by the distribution
    of lumen charges. In addition, we provide converging evidence suggesting that
    gating is controlled by electric fields dissociating counterions from lumen charges,
    promoting local structural deformations. Our findings establish a rigorous framework
    for characterizing and understanding ion transport processes in protein-based
    nanopores, enabling the design of adaptable nanofluidic biotechnologies. We illustrate
    this by optimizing an aerolysin mutant for computing applications.'

  text: In equilibrium, the physical properties of matter are set by the interactions
    between the constituents. In contrast, the energy input of the individual components
    controls the behavior of synthetic or living active matter. Great progress has
    been made in understanding the emergent phenomena in active fluids, though their
    inability to resist shear forces hinders their practical use. This motivates the
    exploration of active solids as shape-shifting materials, yet, we lack controlled
    synthetic systems to devise active solids with unconventional properties. Here
    we build active elastic beams from dozens of active colloids and unveil complex
    emergent behaviors such as self-oscillations or persistent rotations. Developing
    tensile tests at the microscale, we show that the active beams are ultrasoft materials,
    with large (nonequilibrium) fluctuations. Combining experiments, theory, and stochastic
    inference, we show that the dynamics of the active beams can be mapped on different
    phase transitions which are tuned by boundary conditions. More quantitatively,
    we assess all relevant parameters by independent measurements or first-principles
    calculations, and find that our theoretical description agrees with the experimental
    observations. Our results demonstrate that the simple addition of activity to
    an elastic beam unveils novel physics and can inspire design strategies for active
    solids and functional microscopic machines.

  text: While tumor malignancy has been extensively studied under the prism of genetic
    and epigenetic heterogeneity, tumor cell states also critically depend on reciprocal
    interactions with the microenvironment. This raises the hitherto untested possibility
    that heterogeneity of the untransformed tumor stroma can actively fuel malignant
    progression. As biological heterogeneity is inherently difficult to control, we
    adopted a reductionist approach and let tumor cells invade micro-engineered environments
    harboring obstacles with precision-controlled geometry. We find that not only
    the presence of obstacles, but more surprisingly their spatial disorder, causes
    a drastic shift from a collective to a single-cell mode of invasion – comparable
    in strength to cadherin loss. Combining live-imaging and perturbation experiments
    with minimal biophysical modeling, we demonstrate that cell detachments result
    both from local geometrical constraints and a global integration of spatial disorder
    over time. We show that different types of microenvironments map onto different
    universality classes of invasion dynamics - homogeneous substrates follow Kardar–Parisi–Zhang
    (KPZ) scaling, while disordered ones exhibit exponents consistent with KPZ with
    quenched disorder (KPZq). Our findings highlight generic physical principles for
    how the mode of cancer cell invasion depends on environmental heterogeneity, with
    potential implications to understand tumor evolution in vivo.

  text: "Epithelial spreading plays a pivotal role in the development of organisms
    especially those\r\nsuch as zebrafish which require the epithelial enveloping
    layer (EVL) to spread to cover the\r\nsubstantial yolk surface during gastrulation.
    Epiboly requires the transition of the epithelium\r\nwith cuboidal cells to form
    a thin, flat squamous epithelial sheet. During this transition, the\r\ncells show
    tissue-scale mechanosensation with mechanisms such as direct mechanical control\r\nover
    the axis of cell division.\r\nCytoskeletal intermediate filaments play a crucial
    role in vertebrate cells, not only facilitating\r\nmechanical stability but also
    helping facilitate the mechanosensitive response of the cell.\r\nMechanosenstivity
    displayed by intermediate filaments is due not just to their interesting\r\nphysical
    properties but also to their interactions with other cytoskeletal elements such
    as actin\r\nand microtubules. Keratin is the predominant intermediate filament
    expressed in the EVL.\r\nIt expresses concomitantly with the gastrulation movements
    of the developing embryo. Our\r\nwork focuses on understanding the role and dynamics
    of the keratin cytoskeletal network in\r\nmodulating the physical aspects of EVL
    spreading. We demonstrated with the combination of\r\nphysical characterisation
    and manipulations of the EVL, utilising a variety of biophysical tools\r\nand
    microscopy, the mechanistic role of keratin in tissue spreading.\r\nGenerating
    novel genetic morphants and mutants, we probe the effect that the loss of the\r\nkeratin
    network has on the physiology of the epithelium and the developing embryo. We\r\nshow
    that the changing organisation of the keratin network is important for changing
    EVL\r\nphysical properties as the stress imposed on the EVL increases during epiboly.
    By modelling\r\nthe epithelium, we study how the mechanical heterogeneity in an
    epithelium can feed back into\r\na mechanical loop to the maturation of the keratin
    network and hence affect the mechanics\r\nof the epithelium. However, unlike what
    would be predicted by the effect of intermediate\r\nfilaments in acting as a security
    belt and increasing the resistance of the epithelium, we observe\r\nthat loss
    of keratin leads to a delay in the EVL movement. Using both local aspirations
    of the\r\nYSL and EVL ablations, we demonstrate the mechanistic facilitation of
    actin mechanosensation\r\nin a keratin-dependent manner.\r\nFurthermore, using
    chemical inhibitors of microtubule polymerisation, we provide insight into\r\nthe
    mechanisms underlying the organisation and distribution of keratin. Interestingly,
    the\r\nphenotype observed upon this loss of microtubules shows that keratins interact
    with the nucleus\r\nthrough microtubular interactions. Together with these diverse
    observations, we describe\r\nthe mechanosensory feedback between resilience and
    that is critical for uniform and robust\r\nspreading of the epithelium."

  text: For tissues to spread, they must be deformable while maintaining their structural
    integrity. How these opposing requirements are balanced within spreading tissues
    is not yet well understood. Here, we show that keratin intermediate filaments
    function in epithelial spreading by adapting tissue mechanical resilience to the
    stresses arising in the tissue during the spreading process. By analysing the
    expansion of the enveloping cell layer (EVL) over the large yolk cell in early
    zebrafish embryos in vivo, we found that keratin network maturation in EVL cells
    is promoted by stresses building up within the spreading tissue. Through genetic
    interference and tissue rheology experiments, complemented by a vertex model with
    mechanochemical feedback, we demonstrate that stress-induced keratin network maturation
    in the EVL increases tissue viscosity, which is essential for preventing tissue
    rupture. Interestingly, keratins are also required in the yolk cell for mechanosensitive
    actomyosin network contraction and flow, the force-generating processes pulling
    the EVL. These dual mechanosensitive functions of keratins enable a balance between
    pulling force production in the yolk cell and the mechanical resilience of the
    EVL against stresses generated by these pulling forces, thereby ensuring uniform
    and robust tissue spreading.

  text: Developing tissues interpret dynamic changes in morphogen activity to generate
    cell type diversity. To quantitatively study bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)
    signaling dynamics in the mouse neural tube, we developed an embryonic stem cell
    differentiation system tailored for growing tissues. Differentiating cells form
    striking self-organized patterns of dorsal neural tube cell types driven by sequential
    phases of BMP signaling that are observed both in vitro and in vivo. Data-driven
    biophysical modeling showed that these dynamics result from coupling fast negative
    feedback with slow positive regulation of signaling by the specification of an
    endogenous BMP source. Thus, in contrast to relays that propagate morphogen signaling
    in space, we identify a BMP signaling relay that operates in time. This mechanism
    allows for a rapid initial concentration-sensitive response that is robustly terminated,
    thereby regulating balanced sequential cell type generation. Our study provides
    an experimental and theoretical framework to understand how signaling dynamics
    are exploited in developing tissues.

  text: Metazoan development relies on the formation and remodeling of cell-cell contacts.
    Dynamic reorganization of adhesion receptors and the actomyosin cell cortex in
    space and time plays a central role in cell-cell contact formation and maturation.
    Nevertheless, how this process is mechanistically achieved when new contacts are
    formed remains unclear. Here, by building a biomimetic assay composed of progenitor
    cells adhering to supported lipid bilayers functionalized with E-cadherin ectodomains,
    we show that cortical F-actin flows, driven by the depletion of myosin-2 at the
    cell contact center, mediate the dynamic reorganization of adhesion receptors
    and cell cortex at the contact. E-cadherin-dependent downregulation of the small
    GTPase RhoA at the forming contact leads to both a depletion of myosin-2 and a
    decrease of F-actin at the contact center. At the contact rim, in contrast, myosin-2
    becomes enriched by the retraction of bleb-like protrusions, resulting in a cortical
    tension gradient from the contact rim to its center. This tension gradient, in
    turn, triggers centrifugal F-actin flows, leading to further accumulation of F-actin
    at the contact rim and the progressive redistribution of E-cadherin from the contact
    center to the rim. Eventually, this combination of actomyosin downregulation and
    flows at the contact determines the characteristic molecular organization, with
    E-cadherin and F-actin accumulating at the contact rim, where they are needed
    to mechanically link the contractile cortices of the adhering cells.

  text: Electrostatic correlations between ions dissolved in water are known to impact
    their transport properties in numerous ways, from conductivity to ion selectivity.
    The effects of these correlations on the solvent itself remain, however, much
    less clear. In particular, the addition of salt has been consistently reported
    to affect the solution’s viscosity, but most modeling attempts fail to reproduce
    experimental data even at moderate salt concentrations. Here, we use an approach
    based on stochastic density functional theory, which accurately captures charge
    fluctuations and correlations. We derive a simple analytical expression for the
    viscosity correction in concentrated electrolytes, by directly linking it to the
    liquid’s structure factor. Our prediction compares quantitatively to experimental
    data at all temperatures and all salt concentrations up to the saturation limit.
    This universal link between the microscopic structure and viscosity allows us
    to shed light on the nanoscale dynamics of water and ions under highly concentrated
    and correlated conditions.

  text: Single and collective cell migration are fundamental processes critical for
    physiological phenomena ranging from embryonic development and immune response
    to wound healing and cancer metastasis. To understand cell migration from a physical
    perspective, a broad variety of models for the underlying physical mechanisms
    that govern cell motility have been developed. A key challenge in the development
    of such models is how to connect them to experimental observations, which often
    exhibit complex stochastic behaviours. In this review, we discuss recent advances
    in data-driven theoretical approaches that directly connect with experimental
    data to infer dynamical models of stochastic cell migration. Leveraging advances
    in nanofabrication, image analysis, and tracking technology, experimental studies
    now provide unprecedented large datasets on cellular dynamics. In parallel, theoretical
    efforts have been directed towards integrating such datasets into physical models
    from the single cell to the tissue scale with the aim of conceptualising the emergent
    behaviour of cells. We first review how this inference problem has been addressed
    in both freely migrating and confined cells. Next, we discuss why these dynamics
    typically take the form of underdamped stochastic equations of motion, and how
    such equations can be inferred from data. We then review applications of data-driven
    inference and machine learning approaches to heterogeneity in cell behaviour,
    subcellular degrees of freedom, and to the collective dynamics of multicellular
    systems. Across these applications, we emphasise how data-driven methods can be
    integrated with physical active matter models of migrating cells, and help reveal
    how underlying molecular mechanisms control cell behaviour. Together, these data-driven
    approaches are a promising avenue for building physical models of cell migration
    directly from experimental data, and for providing conceptual links between different
    length-scales of description.

  text: 'The homeostasis of epithelial tissue relies on a balance between the self-renewal
    of stem cell populations, cellular differentiation, and loss. Although this balance
    needs to be tightly regulated to avoid pathologies, such as tumor growth, the
    regulatory mechanisms, both cell-intrinsic and collective, which ensure tissue
    steady-state are still poorly understood. Here, we develop a computational model
    that incorporates basic assumptions of stem cell renewal into distinct populations
    and mechanical interactions between cells. We find that the model generates unexpected
    dynamic features: stem cells repel each other in the bulk tissue and are thus
    found rather isolated, as in a number of in vivo contexts. By mapping the system
    onto a gas of passive Brownian particles with effective repulsive interactions,
    that arise from the generated flows of differentiated cells, we show that we can
    quantitatively describe such stem cell distribution in tissues. The interaction
    potential between a pair of stem cells decays exponentially with a characteristic
    length that spans several cell sizes, corresponding to the volume of cells generated
    per stem cell division. Our findings may help understanding the dynamics of normal
    and cancerous epithelial tissues.'

  text: A key feature of many developmental systems is their ability to self-organize
    spatial patterns of functionally distinct cell fates. To ensure proper biological
    function, such patterns must be established reproducibly, by controlling and even
    harnessing intrinsic and extrinsic fluctuations. While the relevant molecular
    processes are increasingly well understood, we lack a principled framework to
    quantify the performance of such stochastic self-organizing systems. To that end,
    we introduce an information-theoretic measure for self-organized fate specification
    during embryonic development. We show that the proposed measure assesses the total
    information content of fate patterns and decomposes it into interpretable contributions
    corresponding to the positional and correlational information. By optimizing the
    proposed measure, our framework provides a normative theory for developmental
    circuits, which we demonstrate on lateral inhibition, cell type proportioning,
    and reaction–diffusion models of self-organization. This paves a way toward a
    classification of developmental systems based on a common information-theoretic
    language, thereby organizing the zoo of implicated chemical and mechanical signaling
    processes.

  text: How living systems achieve precision in form and function despite their intrinsic
    stochasticity is a fundamental yet ongoing question in biology. We generated morphomaps
    of preimplantation embryogenesis in mouse, rabbit, and monkey embryos, and these
    morphomaps revealed that although blastomere divisions desynchronized passively,
    8-cell embryos converged toward robust three-dimensional shapes. Using topological
    analysis and genetic perturbations, we found that embryos progressively changed
    their cellular connectivity to a preferred topology, which could be predicted
    by a physical model in which actomyosin contractility and noise facilitate topological
    transitions, lowering surface energy. This mechanism favored regular embryo packing
    and promoted a higher number of inner cells in the 16-cell embryo. Synchronized
    division reduced embryo packing and generated substantially more misallocated
    cells and fewer inner-cell–mass cells. These findings suggest that stochasticity
    in division timing contributes to robust patterning.
