Control of filament network rigidity by the condensation of crowding molecules
Understanding how liquid-liquid phase separation impacts the mechanics of filament networks is a fundamental physical problem at the heart of biological cellular processes and soft material design. While a few theoretical mechanisms have been proposed, a clear demonstration of the direct coupling of phase separation to...
