It is always exciting when a long-term effort pays off, and today I’m delighted to share our latest publication in the Annual Review of Microbiology, titled Biophysics of Microbial Locomotion. This was a real team effort with Tommaso Redaelli and Isobel Short, with the review delving into how the physics of the microscale, where viscosity…

New paper out in Science Advances today – how bacteria induce metamorphosis in coccolithophores!
Delighted to share our most recent paper out today in Science Advances titled “Bacteria induce an amoeboid phase in coccolithophores that persists after bloom collapse”. This work was led by Sophie Zweifel, a PhD student in the Stocker Lab, and delves into a previously uncharacterised life-stage in bloom-forming coccolithophores. Coccolithophores, such as Geophryocapsa huxleyi (formally…
New preprint out today – how bacteria induce metamorphosis in coccolithophores!
Pleased to announce a new preprint live today to bioRXiv titled “Bacteria induce an amoeboid phase in coccolithophores that persists after bloom collapse”. This work was led by Sophie Zweifel, a PhD student in the Stocker Lab, and delves into a previously uncharacterised life-stage in bloom-forming coccolithophores. Coccolithophores, such as Geophryocapsa huxleyi (formally Emiliania huxleyi),…
