About
Marco Polin is a physicist whose research lies at the intersection of soft matter, active matter, and biological physics. He is best known for pioneering studies on how confinement and geometry steer the self-organisation of active systems—from bacterial suspensions to synthetic swimmers. His work reveals how physical boundaries can direct collective motion, pattern formation, and information flow in systems far from equilibrium. Polin’s most cited paper, “Steering self-organisation through confinement” (2022), has already garnered 3 citations, highlighting its growing influence in the field. He has also made key contributions to understanding the mechanics of ciliary arrays and the hydrodynamics of microswimmers, often combining elegant experiments with theoretical modelling. His research has been published in top journals such as *Physical Review Letters* and *Nature Communications*, and his findings have implications for designing programmable materials, microrobotics, and understanding biological transport. Polin’s work is distinguished by its clarity and interdisciplinary reach, making him a leading voice in the physics of living and active systems.
