Thermal preconditioning of membrane stress to control the shapes of ultrathin crystals

A 2D phospholipid crystal (dark) grows within a fluid vesicle membrane (light), starting as a small flower shape. While the area of the crystal grows progressively, the flower shape is preserved, a result of tension pre-conditioning.

Shape equilibria of vesicles with rigid planar inclusions

Motivated by recent studies of two-phase lipid vesicles possessing 2D solid domains integrated within a fluid bilayer phase, we study the shape equilibria of closed vesicles possessing a single planar, circular inclusion.
