HIGHLIGHTS
- who: V. Yashunsky and collaborators from the LaboratoireResearch University, Paris, France have published the article: Chiral Edge Current in Nematic Cell Monolayers, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 14/Nov/2022
- what: The authors show that human fibrosarcoma cells (HT1080) close to an interface exhibit a spontaneous edge current with broken left-right symmetry while in the bulk the cell flow remains chaotic. Using a combination of in vitro experiments numerical simulations and theoretical work the authors demonstrate the presence of a self-organized layer of -1=2 defects anchored at the boundary and oriented at . . .
