Mathematical and computational models can assist in gaining an understanding of cell
behavior at many levels of organization. Here, we review models in the literature that focus …

Photoresponsive soft materials are everywhere in the nature, from human's retina tissues to
plants, and have been the inspiration for engineers in the development of modern …

Cell proliferation is a central process in tissue development, homeostasis, and disease, yet
how proliferation is regulated in the tissue context remains poorly understood. Here, we …

Recently, it has been discovered that systems of active Brownian particles (APB) at high
density organise their velocities into coherent domains showing large spatial structures in …

Tissues do not exist in isolation—they interact with other tissues within and across organs.
While cell-cell interactions have been intensely investigated, less is known about tissue …

There is a growing interest in bioelectric wound treatment and electrotaxis, the process by
which cells detect an electric field and orient their migration along its direction, has emerged …

Cells coexist together in colonies or as tissues. Their behavior is controlled by an interplay
between intercellular forces and biochemical regulation. We develop a simple model of the …

Cellular rearrangements, as primary sources of tissue fluidization, facilitate topological
transitions during tissue morphogenesis. We study the role of intrinsic cell properties such as …

Collective migration of cells is a fundamental behavior in biology. For the quantitative
understanding of collective cell migration, live-cell imaging techniques have been used …

Although tissues are usually studied in isolation, this situation rarely occurs in biology, as
cells, tissues and organs coexist and interact across scales to determine both shape and …
