cell membrane animation - Dustsounds - 01-21-2020

Hi all,

I've been trying to make an animation similar to this - 



The above example is a super simplified version where most of the surface is just a texture and only the front of the cell membrane has some actual geometry (hand animated with some basic techniques).
 
Ideally I would like to do a proper simulation of this where the whole surface is made out of the little balls and sticks and they interact (push each other around) when the spherical bubble joins together with the surface.

I have gone through various setups for this but have not been able to achieve anything satisfactory.

Does anyone have any ideas for a good tyFlow setup in this case?

Thank you!
