Explore the fascinating world of active matter in this conference talk by Zvonimir Dogic titled "Contractile Microtubules Generate Active Membranes and Foams." Delve into cutting-edge research on how contractile microtubules contribute to the formation of active membranes and foams, a topic at the forefront of nonequilibrium systems and biological processes. Learn about the novel class of driven nonequilibrium systems where energy consumption and dissipation occur at the level of individual units. Gain insights into the applicability of active matter concepts in diverse fields such as granular and glassy systems, control theory, and biological systems. Discover how this research relates to crucial biological processes, including cellular cytoskeleton dynamics, collective cell motion, cancer progression, and large-scale migratory behavior of various organisms. This talk is part of the "Active Matter and Beyond" discussion meeting organized by the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, featuring prominent researchers in the field and providing opportunities for stimulating discussions and interactions with experts.
