New studies from Arizona State University reveal surprising ways bacteria can move without their flagella—the slender, whip-like propellers that usually drive them forward. Subscribe to our newsletter ...
Bacteria can effectively travel even without their propeller-like flagella — by “swashing” across moist surfaces using chemical currents, or by gliding along a built-in molecular conveyor belt. New ...
In a new study published March 21 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Henry Mattingly of the Simons Foundation's Flatiron Institute presents a new computational method for predicting ...

Just like every other creature, bacteria have evolved creative ways of getting around. Sometimes this is easy, like swimming in open water, but navigating more confined spaces poses different ...
Bacteria that rarely tumble are likely to get trapped by obstacles, slowing dispersion. Bacteria that tumble frequently often “retrace their steps,” also slowing dispersion. Dispersion is maximized by ...
