Capturing continuous, long timescale behavioral changes in postural data
Grace C. McKenzie-Smith, Scott W. Wolf, Julien F. Ayroles +1
Animal behavior spans many timescales, from short, seconds-scale actions to circadian rhythms over many hours to life-long changes during aging. Most quantitative behavior studies…
Local polar order controls mechanical stress and triggers layer formation in developing Myxococcus xanthus colonies
Endao Han, Chenyi Fei, Ricard Alert +4
Colonies of the social bacterium Myxococcus xanthus go through a morphological transition from a thin colony of cells to three-dimensional droplet-like fruiting bodies as a strateg…
Long time scales, individual differences, and scale invariance in animal behavior
William Bialek, Joshua W. Shaevitz
The explosion of data on animal behavior in more natural contexts highlights the fact that these behaviors exhibit correlations across many time scales. But there are major challen…
Rheological dynamics of active Myxococcus xanthus populations during development
Matthew E. Black, Joshua W. Shaevitz
The bacterium Myxoccocus xanthus produces multicellular protective droplets called fruiting bodies when starved. These structures form initially through the active dewetting of cel…
Measuring the repertoire of age-related behavioral changes in Drosophila melanogaster
Katherine E. Overman, Daniel M. Choi, Kawai Leung +2
Aging affects almost all aspects of an organism -- its morphology, its physiology, its behavior. Isolating which biological mechanisms are regulating these changes, however, has pr…
Low-Reynolds-number, bi-flagellated Quincke swimmers with multiple forms of motion
Endao Han, Lailai Zhu, Joshua W. Shaevitz +1
In the limit of zero Reynolds number (Re), swimmers propel themselves exploiting a series of non-reciprocal body motions. For an artificial swimmer, a proper selection of the power…
