What's Happening
We are actively recruiting MSc and PhD graduate students for a number of exciting projects from single-molecule imaging of protein organization to studying bacterial ecology and population dynamics. Contact josh.milstein@utoronto.ca.
(18/12/23): Just in time for the Winter Break, our newest manuscript "Mechanics limit ecological diversity and promote heterogeneity in confined bacterial communities" is now available as a preprint online.
(01/12/23): Tianyi's and Jeremy's paper "Spatial exclusion leads to tug-of-war ecological dynamics between competing species within microchannels" is now available in PLoS Computational Biology.
(23/05/23): Zhang's paper on "Extending the Range of Rupture Force Measurements with Axial Optical Tweezers" is now available as a preprint.
(18/04/23): Congratulations Christabel on being awarded a University of Toronto Excellence Award (UTEA) to work in the lab over the summer on antimicrobial treatments in biofilms.
