Lecture

Active Turbulence in Biological Systems

Description

This lecture explores the concept of active turbulence in biological systems, focusing on the formation and behavior of topological defects in cell layers. The instructor discusses the role of active stress and dipolar forces in driving the motion of these defects, as well as their impact on cell motility and colony growth. Through a combination of experimental observations and simulations, the lecture highlights the importance of understanding the dynamics of active matter in biological contexts.
