Mechanical integration between cytoplasmic networks during cytokinesis
Self-replication of cells involves nuclear separation and cytokinesis, both of which depend on the mechanical nature of cytoplasm. The cytoplasm is a multicomponent and active gel, solid enough to integrate forces over the cell, but liquid enough to permit dynamic organization. This thesis addresses...
