Collective motion in bacterial suspensions is scale-free

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 123, Issue 21, May 2026. <br/>SignificanceNature abounds with highly performative collective behaviors, from bird flocks and fish schools to ant colonies and multicellular tissues. Comparable emergent dynamics arise in bacterial suspensions, where hydrodynamic interactions drive self-…
