This collaboration, between a bacterial biochemist and a condensed-matter physicist, use light to control the movement and arrangement of cyanobacteria, forming two- and three-dimensional nematic ...
Researchershave discovered that E. coli bacteria can synchronize their movements, creating order in seemingly random biological systems. By trapping individual bacteria in micro-engineered circular ...
New studies from Arizona State University reveal surprising ways bacteria can move without their flagella - the slender, whip-like propellers that usually drive them forward. Movement lets bacteria ...
The spiral-shaped bacteria Helicobacter pylori are common and troublesome. More than 13 percent of Americans have an H. pylori infection, although rates vary with age, race and socioeconomic status.

In a groundbreaking study that bridges physics and biology, researchers have uncovered the intricate collective behavior of bacterial species drawn from a unique natural environment in northern Mexico ...
Bacteria can effectively travel even without their propeller-like flagella — by “swashing” across moist surfaces using chemical currents, or by gliding along a built-in molecular conveyor belt. New ...
Researchers at TU Delft have discovered that E. coli bacteria can synchronise their movements, creating order in seemingly random biological systems. By trapping individual bacteria in ...
An audience clapping in rhythm, fireflies flashing in unison, or flocks of starlings moving as one – synchronisation is a natural phenomenon observed across diverse systems and scales. First described ...
