Cellular organization in lab-evolved and extant multicellular species obeys a maximum entropy law
Thomas C. Day, Stephanie S. Hohn, Seyed A. Zamani-Dahaj +9
The prevalence of multicellular organisms is due in part to their ability to form complex structures. How cells pack in these structures is a fundamental biophysical issue, underly…
Directed collective motion of bacteria under channel confinement
Hugo Wioland, Enkeleida Lushi, Raymond E. Goldstein
Dense suspensions of swimming bacteria are known to exhibit collective behaviour arising from the interplay of steric and hydrodynamic interactions. Unconfined suspensions exhibit…
Ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic order in bacterial vortex lattices
Hugo Wioland, Francis G. Woodhouse, Jörn Dunkel +1
Despite their inherent non-equilibrium nature, living systems can self-organize in highly ordered collective states that share striking similarities with the thermodynamic equilibr…
Fluid Flows Created by Swimming Bacteria Drive Self-Organization in Confined Suspensions
Enkeleida Lushi, Hugo Wioland, Raymond E Goldstein
Concentrated suspensions of swimming microorganisms and other forms of active matter are known to display complex, self-organized spatio-temporal patterns on scales large compared…
Spontaneous ordering of a bacterial drop into a spiral vortex
Hugo Wioland, Enkeleida Lushi, Raymond E. Goldstein
In this fluid dynamics video we explore the nature and causes of the spontaneous ordering that emerges in a dense bacterial suspension under confinement. Recent experiments with B.…
Confinement Stabilizes a Bacterial Suspension into a Spiral Vortex
Hugo Wioland, Francis G. Woodhouse, Jörn Dunkel +2
Confining surfaces play crucial roles in dynamics, transport and order in many physical systems, but their effects on active matter, a broad class of dynamically self-organizing sy…
