DOI: 10.1002/smll.202107854
Abstract: Cilia and flagella are beating rod-like organelles that enable the directional movement of microorganisms in fluids and fluid transport along the surface of biological organisms or inside organs. The molecular motor axonemal dynein drives their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/jfm.2019.490
Abstract: The squirmer model of Lighthill and Blake has been widely used to analyse swimming ciliates. However, real ciliates are covered by hair-like organelles, called cilia; the differences between the squirmer model and real ciliates remain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.96.052610
Abstract: Micro-organisms usually can swim in their liquid environment by flagellar or ciliary beating. In this numerical work, we analyze the influence of flagellar beating on the orbits of a swimming cell in a shear flow.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/jmedgenet-2019-106424
Abstract: Background Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disorder resulting in abnormal ciliary motility/structure, extremely heterogeneous at genetic and ultrastructural levels. We aimed, in light of extensive genotyping, to identify specific and quantitative ciliary… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.62524
Abstract: We demonstrate a technique for investigating the energetics of flagella or cilia. We record the planar beating of tethered mouse sperm at high resolution. Beating waveforms are reconstructed using proper orthogonal decomposition of the centerline… read more here.
