Microbial range expansions on liquid substrates
Severine Atis, Bryan T. Weinstein, Andrew W. Murray +1
Despite the importance that fluid flow plays in transporting and organizing populations, few laboratory systems exist to systematically investigate the impact of advection on their…
Details Matter: noise and model structure set the relationship between cell size and cell cycle timing
Felix Barber, Po-Yi Ho, Andrew W. Murray +1
Organisms across all domains of life regulate the size of their cells. However, the means by which this is done is poorly understood. We study two abstracted "molecular" models for…
Genetic drift opposes mutualism during spatial population expansion
Melanie JI Muller, Beverly I Neugeboren, David R Nelson +1
Mutualistic interactions benefit both partners, promoting coexistence and genetic diversity. Spatial structure can promote cooperation, but spatial expansions may also make it hard…
Selective sweeps in growing microbial colonies
Kirill S Korolev, Melanie J I Müller, Nilay Karahan +3
Evolutionary experiments with microbes are a powerful tool to study mutations and natural selection. These experiments, however, are often limited to the well-mixed environments of…
