We predict that the speed of a diffusion front is modified by tidal forces.
This effect is small in astrophysical situations, but could be significant -
indeed tunably so - in "gravitational analogues" such as gradient-index lenses.
Confirming this prediction would extend the concept of metamaterials to the
realm of dissipative transport phenomena.
