Funding for Cyanobacteria

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.

Welcome Zaicheng!

Zaicheng Zhang joined the group for their postdoctoral research on cyanobacteria and soft wetting dynamics.

Welcome Mahesh!

Dr. Maheshwar Reddy Gopu joined the group for their postdoctoral research on cyanobacteria and soft wetting dynamics.

Welcome Elias!

Elias Illing joined the group for his PhD project on the self-organization of filamentous cyanobacteria.

Starting up!

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.
