This study shows that prophage induction states in marine bacteria influence biofilm structure and competitive outcomes, revealing synergistic effects in co-cultures through phage-mediated interactions.

This study examines eco-evolutionary dynamics of temperate phages in periodic environments, showing how temperate strategies can outperform lytic or lysogenic strategies under varying host availability and viral mortality.

This paper describes an undergraduate biophysical lab module using Hydra mouth opening research to teach skills like microscopy, image analysis, and scientific writing.
