Spatial clustering of adhesion-deficient cells delaysclearance and prolongs geometric unjammingsignatures in epithelial tissues

The paper shows that clustering of adhesion-deficient cells delays their removal and prolongs mechanical changes in epithelial tissues.

Emergence of travelling wave patterns in resource-mediated tissue competition

This paper studies resource-mediated tissue competition using mathematical models and simulations, showing the emergence of travelling wave patterns that depend on population fitness and resource dynamics.

Neuronal differentiation affects tissue mechanics and progenitor arrangement in the vertebrate neuroepithelium

The paper develops a mechanical model of the neuroepithelium to show how neuronal differentiation rates affect tissue growth anisotropy and cell arrangement.
