How cells transport molecules with 'active carpets'

New fundamental physics research provides insights on the process of diffusion in complex systems such as living organisms. This new theoretical framework has broad implications for active surfaces, such as ones found in bacterial biofilms, active coatings, and pathogen-clearance mechanisms for human health.
