Differential active adhesion and a capillary instability drive global eversion and dissemination of bacterial colonies

Stephan Wimmi, Isabelle Wielert, Kai Zhou…·Berenike Maier

This study shows that chemical gradients induce eversion in bacterial colonies by triggering a capillary instability, leading to bacterial dissemination.
