Escherichia coli chemotaxis to competing stimuli in a microfluidic device with a constant gradient

X. Zhao, R. M. Ford

This study uses a multiscale model to predict E. coli migration in response to competing chemoeffectors, showing direction is controlled by relative concentrations.

Type VI secretion system killing by commensal Neisseria is influenced by the spatial dynamics of bacteria

R. Custodio, R. M. Ford, C. J. Ellison, G. Liu, G. Mickute, C. M. Tang, R. M. Exley

This study shows that T6SS-mediated killing in Neisseria cinerea is enhanced when prey strains express Tfp, keeping them close to attacker strains.
