Just published: a collaborative study led by Jeff Urbach @GUPhysics and Heidi Elmendorf @GUBiology on a novel mechanism of microbial attachment.

Topological data analysis for particulate gels by @ADSmith102 and Gavin Donley, with Victor Zavala, made the cover of @acsnano !

This study combines #ParticleSimulations & #TopologicalDataAnalysis (TDA) to deduce the complex multiscale geometry and topology of the 3-D structure of soft particulate gels. @emanueladelgado @Georgetown @GUPhysics @UWMadison @argonne Read: go.acs.org/b7e
