Statistical signatures of microorganism motility under environmental stress

Luiza Treichel Mossi, Nicole Mazzitelli Narvaz, Larissa da Silva Bento +6

The motility of microorganisms provides a natural framework for studying active matter and its response to environmental perturbations. We experimentally investigate the trajectori…
