AggreBots: configuring CiliaBots through guided, modular tissue aggregation.

Ciliated biobots, or CiliaBots, are a class of engineered multicellular tissues that are capable of self-actuated motility propelled by the motile cilia located on their exterior surface. Correlations have been observed between CiliaBot motility patterns and their morphology and cilia distribution. However, precise control of these structural parameters to generate desired motility patterns predictably remains lacking.
