We are an experimental group interested in the physics of complex, nonlinear, disordered & far-from-equilibrium soft matter systems. PI @YLahini (student-run)
How should we model the dynamics of root growth as it turns towards gravity?
As physicists, we tried using a damped harmonic oscillator. And it works! In small angles.

Our latest research, just published in @NaturePhysics: slow relaxations and logarithmic aging occur via self-organized avalanches of local instabilities. Splendid work by @Yaniv_Friedman and Dor Shohat @ComplexLab_TAU@TelAvivUni

📢 Postdoc Job Alert! Join us @EPFL_en, in gorgeous Lausanne, Switzerland. We are a curiosity-driven team exploring the wonderful mechanics of slender structures, focusing on experiments, together w/ theory and computation.
Deadline: July 1st. More info: https://t.co/cfbj5Icc12
Meet the 2023 APS DSOFT ESME finalists! Come learn about their research at the DSOFT early career and student awards session at march meeting on Tuesday March 7th, 8-11 am at room 208!
Amorphous, complex matter can store long-lasting memories of past mechanical perturbations. We show that these can be tracked and quantified using a global observable - just measure dissipation!

Beautiful work from @Gulliver_lab, with contribution by our lab member Dor Shohat! Dor’s stay at @ESPCI_Paris was funded by the Chateaubriand Fellowship awarded by the French Embassy and the French Institute in Israel.
In @NaturePhysics , researchers from @Gulliver_lab (@CNRS@ESPCI_Paris ) described the collective actuation of an elastic network of mini robots.
Really elegant and smart work from @odauchot @BaconnierP , congrats!
