A collaborative team of physicists and microbiologists from UNIST and Stanford University has, for the first time, uncovered the fundamental laws governing the distribution of self-propelled particles ...

Bacteria are constantly moving by help of motility organs called flagella or pili to colonize new niches. Also, bacteria can exchange information, like “speaking to each other”, and thus acquire new ...

Hours before starving bacteria begin assembling into visible structures, a deep-learning system built at Rice University can ...

Geometric confinement paradoxically enhances bacterial chemotaxis through chiral surface swimming and sidewall alignment, with optimal performance when lane width matches the circular swimming radius.

Life moves in mysterious ways—and perhaps especially so for organisms that undergo dramatic shifts in levels of ...
