Circular swimming motility and disordered hyperuniform state in an algae system
Mingji Huang, Wensi Hu, Siyuan Yang +2
Active matter comprises individually driven units that convert locally stored energy into mechanical motion. Interactions between driven units lead to a variety of non-equilibrium…

Controlling cell motion and microscale flow with polarized light fields
Siyuan Yang, Mingji Huang, Yongfeng Zhao +1
We investigate how light polarization affects the motion of photo-responsive algae, \textit{Euglena gracilis}. In a uniformly polarized field, cells swim approximately perpendicula…

Data-driven quantitative modeling of bacterial active nematics
He Li, Xia-qing Shi, Mingji Huang +5
Active matter comprises individual units that convert energy into mechanical motion. In many examples, such as bacterial systems and biofilament assays, constituent units are elong…
