Abstract: Biological microswimmers alter their swimming trajectories to follow the direction of an applied electric field, exhibiting electrotaxis. We show that synthetic active droplet microswimmers also autonomously change swimming trajectories in microchannels, even undergoing "U-turns," in… read more here.
