Targeted disruption of phage liquid crystalline droplets abolishes antibiotic tolerance of bacterial biofilms led by @abultarafder.bsky.social Great collaboration with @pearce-maths.bsky.social and @geiselbiofilm.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

Extremely happy to see our work on the collective chemotaxis of cell groups out! Such an incredible and fun collaboration leading to exciting interdisciplinary science #biophysics #mathbio #cellbiology 🔗 doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

New paper out in @pnas.org We followed cells migrating along signalling gradients in 3D, and found they collectively behave as a living droplet - a self-propelling fluid that grows. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
