This paper develops a minimal physical model to explain haptotaxis and oscillatory cell migration by linking adhesion strength to protrusive actin activity.

The paper develops a theoretical model and experimental analysis to study how branched cells balance shape dynamics for directional decision-making during migration.

This study models branched-cell chemotaxis in complex environments and finds that slow cells are more accurate in following weak chemoattractant signals, while neutrophils behave as fast cells compromising accuracy.
