Short-term Memory Effects in the Phototactic Behavior of Microalgae: Model | HackerNoon
Briefly

The model predicts that algae can exhibit different phototactic behaviors, switching successively from positive phototaxis to back-and-forth, and then to negative phototaxis.
Achieving the switch between phototactic behaviors requires precise calibration of light intensity and waiting times, presenting a significant experimental challenge.
Experimental observations confirmed the model's predictions, demonstrating the algae's ability to transition between positive to back-and-forth phototactic behaviors.
The careful modulation of stimuli indicates a complex interplay between environmental factors and algal behavior, highlighting the need for systematic experimental approaches.
