5 lectures on: 
Ciliated tissues. Open questions in ciliated tissues with a focus on lung epithelia, the state of the art in tissue culture methods for studying cilia, and imaging techniques used to observe ciliary behaviour within epithelial tissue. Also covers experimental model systems at colloidal scale.

5 lectures on: 
Fluid flows and mass transport by ciliary arrays. Singularity solutions for modelling cilia in various geometries, mass transport by beating cilia in flow, three-dimensional flows and oxygen transport in coral cilia, and collective microbial dynamics.

5 lectures on: 
Active and passive responses to flow. Hydrodynamics of flow sensing and its use for detection and navigation, how soft bodies respond passively and actively to surrounding flow, and the design principles underlying optimal hydrodynamic response.
Benjamin Friedrich

Germania
5 lectures on: 
Cilia synchronization: within a single cilium and between many cilia. Mechanisms of ciliary beating, cilia as noisy oscillators, cilia responding to flow, and synchronization via the noisy Adler equation, the noisy Kuramoto model, and spatially extended systems.

5 lectures on: 
Cilia Across Scales. Organization, Function, and Evolution of Eukaryotic Life. External vs internal ciliary organization, modelling cilia from point forces to elastic filaments and porous media, and roles of cilia in multicellularity and symbiosis.

5 lectures on: 
Cilia beyond the beat. Structural organization of the axoneme, the mechanical properties of cilia, how cilia sense and respond to mechanical cues through mechanosensitivity, signalling, and the cellular processes underlying ciliary assembly and growth.

5 lectures on: 
Control of ciliary coordination from single cells to animals. Microswimming fundamentals, gaits and waveforms of single ciliated cells, emergence of metachronal waves across ciliary arrays, and neural control mechanisms coordinating cilia.
