Modeling
The fascinating properties of pattern creating bacteria may be translated into the language of mathematics. In this subsection we are investigating the equations behind the behaviour of the genetically modified organisms created in the wetlab. We do so using a layered approach, colony level modelling uses partial differential equations to describe large cell groups which are treated as a continuum. Internal level modelling is used to describe the interactions that happen within single cells. Finally the hybrid model merges the two approaches into a final description of our pattern forming cells.
Colony level model
Our colony layer model relies on a Keller-Segel type system of differential equations. These equations are simulated using finite differences.
