The paper shows that transport coefficients in aerotactic spreading emerge from cell-cell collisions and can be determined experimentally, using a model that reproduces observed dynamics without adjustable parameters.

The paper shows how spatial pattern transitions in Myxococcus xanthus swarms occur through local alignment and cell reversal, without genetic changes, creating stable spatial domains.

The paper investigates the role of RomRX and MglB in regulating cell polarity in Myxococcus xanthus, showing RomRX acts as an effector of MglAGTP and competes with MglB to modulate complex stability.

This paper models how demographic factors affect the spread and persistence of gene drives in populations.

The paper reduces a stochastic gene expression model to a discrete coarse-grained model, using Lagrangian dynamics to identify basins of attraction as cell types and calculate metastability.

The paper models Edar expression dynamics to reveal hidden patterning processes in tooth signaling centers, showing a two-step activation and erasure mechanism.
