Abstract

Eukaryotic cells and bacteria can use the substrate to self-regulate their movement. Eukaryotic cells, such as MDCK epithelial cells, leave footprints on the substrate, which are then used to regulate their motility and exploratory behavior. On the other hand, Escherichia coli bacteria stop and adhere to the surface to break confinement when swimming close to the surface and explore their surroundings more efficiently. In this talk, I will explore these mechanisms through mathematical models highlighting how both cells and bacteria, at two different biological scales, use the environment to self-regulate the way they explore their surroundings.
