OSCILLATING UNITS. “The slime mold Physarum polycephalum is a unicellular, multinucleate protist that relies on reactive navigation to explore its environment. The vegetative state of P. polycephalum (known as a plasmodium) is composed of many smaller oscillating units. Each unit oscillates at a frequency dependent upon both the local environment and its interactions with neighboring oscillators.”
