Heterogeneity in the size distribution of cancer cell populations is linked to drug resistance
and invasiveness. However, understanding how such heterogeneity arises is still damped …

Recent advances in single-cell technologies have enabled time-resolved measurements of
the cell size over several cell cycles. These data encode information on how cells correct …

The dynamics of the size distribution in growing and dividing rod-shaped bacteria can
change depending on the perspective through which the cell population is observed. From …

Recently, there has been an increasing need for tools to simulate cell size regulation due to
important applications in cell proliferation and gene expression. However, implementing the …

Body size is a fundamental trait linked to many ecological processes—from individuals to
ecosystems. Although the effects of body size on metabolism are well‐known, the potential …

Stochastic chemical kinetics is a widely used formalism for studying stochasticity of chemical
reactions inside single cells. Experimental studies of reaction networks are generally …

Unlike many single-celled organisms, the growth of fission yeast cells within a cell cycle is
not exponential. It is rather characterized by three distinct phases (elongation, septation, and …

Single cells actively coordinate growth and division to regulate their size, yet how this size
homeostasis at the single-cell level propagates over multiple generations to impact clonal …

Bacterial division is an inherently stochastic process with effects on fluctuations of protein
concentration and phenotype variability. Current modeling tools for the stochastic short-term …

Exponentially growing cells regulate their size by controlling their timing of division. Since
two daughter cells are born as a result of this cell splitting, cell size regulation has a direct …
