Microbes drive large-scale processes in human health, industrial applications, and the environment and have traditionally been sampled and studied at these larger scales.
However, the collective behaviour of microbes emerges from their microscopic behaviour and fine-scale interactions with one another and their environment.
Our research group uses mathematical modelling and quantitative video-microscopy to study a range of dynamic processes in biology – crucially at the scale of individual cells – with specific applications in bacterial motility, symbioses, nutrient cycling and flows around coral reefs.
