In particular, in close confinements, such as those encountered by dense cell populations during development or regeneration, collective migration can only arise coordinately. Yet, how individuals unify their velocities is often not understood. Focusing on a finite number of cells in circular confinements, we identify waves of polymerizing actin that function as a pacemaker governing the speed of individual cells. We show that the onset of collective motion coincides with the synchronization of the wave nucleation frequencies across the population. Employing a simpler and more readily accessible mechanical model system of active spheres, we identify the synchronization of the individuals’ internal oscillators as one of the essential requirements to reach the corresponding collective state. The mechanical ‘toy’ experiment illustrates that the global synchronous state is achieved by nearest neighbor coupling. We suggest by analogy that local coupling and the synchronization of actin waves are essential for the emergent, self-organized motion of cell collectives."}],"department":[{"_id":"MiSi"},{"_id":"NanoFab"},{"_id":"BjHo"}],"publication_status":"published","date_published":"2023-09-13T00:00:00Z","scopus_import":"1","publisher":"Springer Nature","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_created":"2023-09-24T22:01:10Z","oa":1,"oa_version":"Published Version","status":"public","quality_controlled":"1","title":"Synchronization in collectively moving inanimate and living active matter","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2041-1723"]},"external_id":{"isi":["001087583700030"],"pmid":["37704595"]},"doi":"10.1038/s41467-023-41432-1","has_accepted_license":"1","author":[{"full_name":"Riedl, Michael","id":"3BE60946-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Michael","last_name":"Riedl","orcid":"0000-0003-4844-6311"},{"last_name":"Mayer","first_name":"Isabelle D","id":"61763940-15b2-11ec-abd3-cfaddfbc66b4","full_name":"Mayer, Isabelle D"},{"full_name":"Merrin, Jack","id":"4515C308-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Jack","last_name":"Merrin","orcid":"0000-0001-5145-4609"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-6620-9179","id":"41E9FBEA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Sixt, Michael K","last_name":"Sixt","first_name":"Michael K"},{"orcid":"0000-0003-2057-2754","id":"3A374330-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Hof, Björn","last_name":"Hof","first_name":"Björn"}],"publication":"Nature Communications","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_number":"5633","_id":"14361","ec_funded":1,"citation":{"mla":"Riedl, Michael, et al. “Synchronization in Collectively Moving Inanimate and Living Active Matter.” <i>Nature Communications</i>, vol. 14, 5633, Springer Nature, 2023, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-023-41432-1\">10.1038/s41467-023-41432-1</a>.","ieee":"M.
