Effective medium modeling of liquid crystalline bacteriophages

Birefringent films of bacteriophages represent a new class of biological liquid crystals. Their self-assembled structure determines their properties, including increased antibiotic tolerance, which we explain using an effective medium theory of antibiotic diffusion.
