Lipid membranes are complex quasi-two-dimensional fluids, whose importance in biology and unique physical/materials properties have made them a major target for biophysical research. Recent single-molecule tracking experiments in membranes have caused some controversy, calling the venerable Saffman-Delbrück model into question and suggesting that, perhaps, current understanding of membrane hydrodynamics is imperfect. However, single-molecule tracking is not well suited to resolving the details o ...[more]
