Universal abundance fluctuations across microbial communities, tropical forests, and urban populations
Ashish B. George, James O'Dwyer
The growth of complex populations, such as microbial communities, forests, and cities, occurs over vastly different spatial and temporal scales. Although research in different fiel…
Functional universality in slow-growing microbial communities arises from thermodynamic constraints
Ashish B. George, Tong Wang, Sergei Maslov
The dynamics of microbial communities is incredibly complex, determined by competition for metabolic substrates and cross-feeding of byproducts. Species in the community grow by ha…
Ecological landscapes guide the assembly of optimal microbial communities
Ashish B. George, Kirill S. Korolev
Assembling optimal microbial communities is key for various applications in biofuel production, agriculture, and human health. Finding the optimal community is challenging because…
Traveling fronts in self-replicating persistent random walks with multiple internal states
Keisuke Ishihara, Ashish B. George, Ryan Cornelius +1
Self-activation coupled to a transport mechanism results in traveling waves that describe polymerization reactions, forest fires, tumor growth, and even the spread of epidemics. Di…
Pinned, locked, pushed, and pulled traveling waves in structured environments
Ching-Hao Wang, Sakib Matin, Ashish B. George +1
Traveling fronts describe the transition between two alternative states in a great number of physical and biological systems. Examples include the spread of beneficial mutations, c…
Chirality provides a direct fitness advantage and facilitates intermixing in cellular aggregates
Ashish B. George, Kirill S. Korolev
Chirality in shape and motility can evolve rapidly in microbes and cancer cells. To determine how chirality affects cell fitness, we developed a model of chiral growth in compact a…
