Yesterday, at APS March meeting 2026, Ramesh @raamesh123 gave a poster presentation and a talk and I co-organized and co-chaired a session on “dynamics, activity and topology in slender matter” and presented my work. What an eventful day for our family #APSSummit26 #couplegoal

This study was conducted by Rosa Sinaasappel, @AntoineDeblais, and colleagues at the University of Amsterdam, @krprathyusha, Saad Bhamla, and colleagues at @GeorgiaTech, and collaborators at Sorbonne University.

Individual active filaments, from living worms to a robotic filament chain, aggregate dispersed non-Brownian passive particles from repeated contact and body deformation, with clustering dynamics governed by filament length and bending stiffness.

Had the pleasure of giving an invited online lecture last week at NIT Calicut. It was especially meaningful to revisit DPD, a method I first explored during my PhD — and to contribute in a small way to Kerala’s higher education, engaging with MTech students and faculty members.

Check out the full preprint, now posted to the @arxiv! Thanks to authors R. Sinaasappel, @krprathyusha, @TuazonHarry, E. Mirzahossein, P. Illien, @BhamlaLab, and A. Deblais for their wonderful work!

Congrats @AntoineDeblais and other winners. So proud of you :). I always thought it is a funny and clever idea to change the worm activity. A big achievement to active polymer and active matter community. Glad that we are already collaborating. 🥳🥳🥳

Congratulations to Daniel Bonn, Antoine Deblais, Tess Heeremans and Sander Woutersen! They won an Ig Nobel prize for their research in which they investigate the behaviour of drunk worms as a particular form of active matter. https://t.co/NXrPeub9Y2

It feels incredibly overwhelming when the hardcopy from the Royal Society of Chemistry, UK arrives by the post. The link to the paper https://t.co/NJsBmDDBe8

… always great to see majority women-authored papers in (especially theoretical) physics. Hopefully LMP @LivMatPhys will contribute more in the future. #womeninSTEM

Chemical activity, chemotaxis & steric repulsion work together to create complex dynamics in clusters of colloids/enzymes. @krprathyusha, @SahaSuropriya & @RGolestanian from @LivMatPhys analyze fluctuations & glassy behavior in this new paper. @PhysRevLett https://t.co/ie3VBBPj18
