Deposited footprints let cells switch between confined, oscillatory, and exploratory migration

The paper models how cell footprints influence migration patterns, showing cells can switch between confined, oscillatory, and exploratory motion based on footprint deposition and response.

Migration and division in cell monolayers on substrates with topological defects

The paper studies fibroblast organization and proliferation on substrates with topological defects using simulation and experiment, finding that division rates depend on cell area and aspect ratio.

Picking winners in cell-cell collisions: wetting, speed, and contact

The paper models cell-cell collisions to predict collision outcomes based on speed and contact angle, showing both models can explain experimental results but can be distinguished by orthogonal perturbations.

Rules of Contact Inhibition of Locomotion for Cells on Suspended Nanofibers

This study investigates contact inhibition of locomotion (CIL) on suspended nanofibers, revealing distinct behaviors compared to 2D substrates and showing how fiber geometry and cell division influence cell-cell interactions.

Leader cells in collective chemotaxis: optimality and tradeoffs

This study models collective chemotaxis, showing that leader-follower specialization is optimal in both sharp and shallow gradients, with leader placement affecting cluster speed and flexibility.
