The non-equilibrium dynamics of enzymes or molecular motors can be coupled through the surrounding medium which leads to synchronization. More information in our work with Ramin Golestanian and Jaime Agudo-Canalejo which is now out at New Journal of Physics. doi.org/10.1088/1367-2…

We have a number of open PhD positions in Active Matter and Statistical Physics Living Matter Physics [ds.mpg.de/lmp] MPI-DS Göttingen. You can find information on the positions and how to apply at the link below. ds.mpg.de/4019447/job_fu…

Chaos in a drop!? This and other amazing things can happen when nonreciprocity and motility act together in mixtures of quorum sensing active matter! Out in Physical Review Letters with Y.Duan, B.Mahault, Ramin Golestanian from Living Matter Physics MPI-DS Göttingen doi.org/10.1103/PhysRe…

Our recent work on a generalized Lorentz Reciprocal Theorem for Fluids with Odd Viscosity. Great work led by Yuto Hosaka Living Matter Physics MPI-DS Göttingen together with Andrej Vilfan journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…





-A recent feature article in Europhysics News- Non-reciprocal active-matter: a tale of “loving hate, brawling love” across the scales europhysicsnews.org/articles/epn/a… The article summarizes exciting research on the topic of non-reciprocal active matter, carried out across Living Matter Physics


Applied mechanical forces can reduce the energy barrier in the reaction free energy. This and many other results in our nonlinear response theory of molecular machines with Ramin Golestanian and Jaime Agudo-Canalejo Living Matter Physics MPI-DS Göttingen UCL. Just Published in EPL. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.120…

Living Matter Physics at the foot of Zugspitze: Great science and great hikes at this year’s Living Matter Physics retreat. Many thanks to everyone who contributed and special thanks to Umweltforschungsstation Schneefernerhaus for the very interesting tour!


We are inviting applications for Postdoctoral Researcher positions in Active Matter and Statistical Physics Living Matter Physics MPI-DS Göttingen. The research area will build on ongoing projects in the department, such as non-reciprocal active matter. Info on how to apply: ds.mpg.de/4068189/job_fu…


New paper w/ Mike Chatzittofi Ramin Golestanian! When the precision of a molecular machine is too good to be true, it could be that there is not a single machine but a whole team behind it. Stochastic thermodynamics helps us infer how big the team is, and how strongly it cooperates.

Hot off the press: In a collaboration between Stefan Karpitschka's group and several people from Living Matter Physics, we show how filament motility, reversals at illumination boundaries and filament interactions work together to create emergent structures. Leila Abbaspour Ramin Golestanian MPI-DS Göttingen

Scientists from our Department 'Living Matter Physics' developed a new model on organization of matter: non-reciprocal interactions play an important role in creating structures on a higher level - and eventually in the formation of life. Living Matter Physics ds.mpg.de/4075605/241212…
