Spatial structure promotes coexistence, resilience, and synergy in microbial communities
Motasem ElGamel, Andrew Mugler
Microbial communities are highly complex systems with a tremendous number of interactions. They thrive in vastly different environments, from the human body to soil and marine ecos…
Optimal information transmission in a sequential model for cell division
Krishna P. Ramachandran, Motasem ElGamel, Farshid Jafarpour +1
In proliferating cell populations, adaptive changes to biochemical reactions can change a cell's division time, which in turn can change the population size. However, biochemical r…
General mechanism for concentration-based cell size control
Motasem ElGamel, Lucas Ribaudo, Andrew Mugler
Cells control their size to cope with noise during growth and division. Eukaryotic cells exhibiting "sizer" control (targeting a specific size before dividing) may rely on molecula…
Effects of molecular noise on cell size control
Motasem ElGamel, Andrew Mugler
Cells employ control strategies to maintain a stable size. Dividing at a target size (the `sizer' strategy) is thought to produce the tightest size distribution. However, this resu…
Multigenerational memory in bacterial size control
Motasem ElGamel, Harsh Vashistha, Hanna Salman +1
Cells maintain a stable size as they grow and divide. Inspired by the available experimental data, most proposed models for size homeostasis assume size control mechanisms that act…
