| Abstract | Engineered multicellular bacterial systems have a wide range of potential applications, including gut microbiome maintenance, cancer therapy, environmental remediation, and engineered living materials that can sense and respond to local conditions. However, such bacterial systems are difficult to design due to our lack of a mechanistic understanding of how cells within a bacterial colony interact and communicate across time and space. This work will address this issue by studying simplified engi |
