Data-Driven Models Reveal Mutant Cell Behaviors Important for Myxobacterial Aggregation

Self-organization into spatial patterns is evident in many multicellular phenomena. Even for the best-studied systems, our ability to dissect the mechanisms driving coordinated cell movement is limited. While genetic approaches can identify mutations perturbing multicellular patterns, the diverse na...
