Abstract: Recent research has demonstrated that chemotactic bacteria can disperse inside microsized pores while traveling toward favorable conditions. Microbe–microbe cotransport might enable nonmotile bacteria to be carried with motile partners to enhance their dispersion and reduce… read more here.

Abstract: The front of a compact bacterial colony growing on a Petri dish is a paradigmatic instance of non-equilibrium fluctuations in the celebrated Eden, or Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ), universality class. While in many experiments the scaling exponents… read more here.
