The paper investigates bacterial warfare by analyzing toxin production in Escherichia coli, finding that localized toxin bursts are more effective than uniform production in structured populations.

The paper shows how inherited flagellar structures coordinate swimming onset in E. coli cells by integrating transcriptional noise and sharpening it into a heritable decision.

The paper uses multi-generational imaging to study essential genes in E. coli, revealing new mechanisms behind growth laws and identifying unknown gene functions.

COSPLAY provides a modular, expandable toolbox for generating yeast expression plasmids using a Golden Gate approach and software-assisted protocol.
