Computing and Understanding Collective Action (CUCA) Lab.
@cuca-lab.bsky.social
We try to decipher how order and function build up in complex systems. Mostly deploying the statistical physics toolkit, combining theory, numerical simulations and experiments of model systems. @ Faculty of Physics @ub.edu + @ubics.bsky.social
Very excited to see this work out! Mixtures of active colloids, clustering, de-mixing, collective dynamics and all that. Great experiments by @lauraal.bsky.social with Lucio Isa @ethz.ch Elena Sesé and Ignacio Pagonabarraga #activematter #softmatter
