Mathematical models are indispensable for disentangling the interactions through which
biological components work together to generate the forces and flows that position, mix, and …

The omnipresence of fluid–structure interaction (FSI) in biological systems is indisputable—
from the vibration of leaves to the locomotion of fish, to the flying of birds, and to the …

Intracellular transport is essential for maintaining cellular function. This process is driven by
different mechanisms in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. In small prokaryotic cells, diffusion …

The last few years have witnessed an explosion of new numerical methods for filament
hydrodynamics. Aside from their ubiquity in biology, physics, and engineering, filaments …

Cytoplasmic streaming is driven by molecular motors that move along the cytoskeleton and
entrain the surrounding fluid. In certain cell types, the direction of cytoplasmic streaming is …

This paper briefly reprises, with added commentary, a talk I gave on transport and flows
within living cells at an APS-DFD meeting. Directed transport is especially important in large …
