Predator amoeba🦠 C.owczarzaki is both chemotactic and chemokinetic. Our simulations indicate that even just the latter is beneficial to predation. Great work by Sonyia Quick @jasonbains.bsky.social (his second paper!) et al. A serendipitous collaboration with the Gerdt lab. doi.org/10.5967/sh2f...

A new model enables efficient simulation of bacterial responses to changing chemicals in environments like soil and oceans, reducing computational costs and supporting ecosystem research. doi.org/g9529b

Really great to see the article published! Thank you @otticroze.bsky.social and @finnegansquark.bsky.social for your support and guidance throughout.
