Just wrapped up a mini-move to our permanent lab space in Tang Hall! 🧳🏢 Loving the amazing view of Sage Hall and Ithaca from our new scientific home. 🏞️ Exciting times ahead!🔬✨

New preprint alert! 🚨 Nan investigated how sliding droplets deform soft substrates, shedding #elastocapillary ridges behind. In our latest preprint (arxiv.org/pdf/2409.00280), we explore how droplet speed affects its shape and dissipation, and how they are intertwined.

🎉 A new semester, new faces! We are excited to welcome Dana, Ethan, and Jemma to the lab! 🌟 Welcome to the team! Read more: softliv-lab.cornell.edu/welcome-spotli…

New Publication! 📢 Not all biomolecular condensates are simple droplets. 🔍 Bik1, a key microtubule plus-end tracking protein in budding yeast, forms condensates that aren’t uniform liquids but fluid fractal networks. 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4146… Congrats to all co-authors!🎉

New prepint! We study thermodynamics of microphase separation in a swollen, strain-stiffening polymer network, enabling prediction of phase diagrams. Congrats, Carla Fernandez-Rico and all co-authors. We'll start posting more frequently on🦋Search for Softliv. arxiv.org/abs/2506.08958
