This paper develops a 3D in vitro vascular model using PDMS and endothelial cells to study stent-induced mechanical effects and endothelialization.

This paper shows that Dictyostelium discoideum uses hypoxia to direct chemotactic streaming toward higher oxygen levels, independent of aerotaxis.

This study shows that the stiffness of primordial germ cells is required for their arrest and extravasation in avian embryos, with actin polymerization regulating this stiffness.
