Spatiotemporal Symmetry in Rings of Coupled Biolocail Oscillatrtors of Physarum Plasmodial Slime Mold Takamatsu et al 2001

From enfascination

A short strange little paper demonstrating success (and some more observations in support of) the stewart, collins, golubitsky groupoid work and its predictions. These guys found some symmetries in the ways the slime molds behave on little triangles and predicted (or atleast observed) a few cycles predicted by the math.

They end: "This approach will be widely effective for analyzing the dynamics of geometrically symmetric systems encountered in various practical systems"
