Bacterial Biohybrid Microswimmers
Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2018 Over millions of years, Nature has optimized the motion of biological systems at the micro and nanoscales. Motor proteins to motile single cells have managed to overcome Brownian motion and solve several challenges that arise at low Reynolds numbers.

Effective Viscosity of Microswimmer Suspensions [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2010 The measurement of a quantitative and macroscopic parameter to estimate the global motility of a large population of swimming biological cells is a challenge Experiments on the rheology of active suspensions have been performed. Effective viscosity of sheared suspensions of live unicellular motile micro-algae (\textit{Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii}) is far

Microswimmers near corrugated, periodic surfaces
Soft Matter, 2021 We derive an analytical theory for the hydrodynamic interactions between microswimmers and corrugated surfaces and study the impact of a periodic surface on the velocities of active agents.
