Bacterial collective behaviours — •Knut Drescher — Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology — Department of Physics, Philipps-Universität Marburg
In nature, bacteria often engage in a range of collective behaviors. In this presentation, I will demonstrate how two bacterial collective behaviors, swarming and biofilm formation, are related by physical interactions, chemical signaling, and dynamical transitions. I will show how these collective behaviors arise from cell-cell interactions, and the physiological state of individual cells. Furthermore, I will introduce new experimental methods for investigating bacterial collective behaviors.
