Collective colony growth is optimized by branching pattern formation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Molecular Systems Biology, 2021 Branching pattern formation is common in many microbes. Extensive studies have focused on addressing how such patterns emerge from local cell–cell and cell–environment interactions. However, little is known about whether and to what extent these patterns

Cell Migration with Multiple Pseudopodia: Temporal and Spatial Sensing Models [PDF]
, 2013 Cell migration triggered by pseudopodia (or “false feet”) is the most used method of locomotion. A 3D finite element model of a cell migrating over a 2D substrate is proposed, with a particular focus on the mechanical aspects of the biological phenomenon.
