The German Research Foundation is funding our project on the collective dynamics of filamentous cyanobacteria. In collaboration with Stefan Klumpp from the University of Göttingen, we will investigate how swarms of these microbes use statistical physics principles to build their colonies.
Starting in May 2023, the group will move from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization, Göttingen to the Department of Physics at the University of Konstanz.
