• Spherical squirmers: models for swimming micro-organisms (2016, methodology): “These particular displacement functions are the same as those chosen by Magar & Pedley (2005) and by Wang & Ardekani (2012) to represent isolated unsteady squirmers; different choices of the constants bj permit hovering (Ū = 0) and neutral swimming (B2 = 0) as well as general streaming.”

• Active suspensions and their nonlinear models (2013, methodology): “This so-called “squirmer” model, which was first developed by Lighthill [65] and Blake [66] and later refined by Pedley and coworkers [67,68], is appropriate to model the dynamics of ciliated microorganisms such as Volvox [32,72] or Paramecium, though it has often been used as a generic model for se”
• Optimal feeding is optimal swimming for all P\'eclet numbers (2011, background): “The feeding of a model squirmer was recently addressed for steady and unsteady tangential surface motions described by the superposition of one swimming and one non-swimming mode [34, 35].”
