Abstract: In contrast to bird flocks, fish schools and animal herds, midge swarms maintain cohesion but do not possess global order. High-speed imaging techniques are now revealing that these swarms have surprising properties. Here, I show… read more here.

Abstract: Using external illumination cues, we induce the formation and dissolution of laboratory swarms of the nonbiting midge Chironomus riparius and study their behavior during these transient processes. In general, swarm formation is slower than swarm… read more here.
