Human tracheal skin cells self-assemble into multi-cellular, moving organoids called Anthrobots. These images show Anthrobots with cilia on their surface (yellow) distributed in different patterns. Surface patterns of cilia are correlated with different movement patterns: circular, wiggling, long curves or straight lines. Credit: Gizem Gumuskaya, Tufts University
