SUMMARY:Fluid and solid mechanics in active cellular processes - Michael S
 helley (New York University\; Simons Foundation)

DESCRIPTION:Many fundamental phenomena in eukaryotic cells -- nuclear migr
 ation\, spindle positioning\, chromosome segregation -- involve the intera
 ction of often transitory structures with boundaries and fluids. I will di
 scuss the interaction of theory and simulation with experimental measureme
 nts of active processes within the cell. This includes understanding the f
 orce transduction mechanisms underlying nuclear migration\, spindle positi
 oning and oscillations\, as well as how active displacement domains of chr
 omatin might be forming in the interphase nucleus.<br>
