Check our new paper: "Pair cross-correlation analysis for assessing protein co-localization." Here we provide a quantitative understanding of the image pair cross-correlation method used to analyze spatial co-localization from super-resolution images.

What can we learn from swarm behavior and implement it to perform diverse tasks in various environments?
@natureportfolio.bsky.social
calls for papers on Swarm Intelligence #Swarm #intelligence #Collective #Collections at Nature Communications.
www.nature.com/collections/...

This study investigates the factors affecting #swarm movement, revealing that solutal buoyancy drives their motion, with potential #biomedical applications like targeted drug delivery #Swarms #collectivebehaviour #nanomotors

Cell shape affects bacterial colony growth under physical confinement:

Cocci -> compact spherical colonies
Rods -> elongated colonies with increased access to nutrients
