Shape-velocity correlation defines polarization in migrating cell simulations
Gilberto L. Thomas, Ismael Fortuna, Gabriel C. Perrone +2
Cell migration plays essential roles in development, wound healing, diseases, and in the maintenance of a complex body. Experiments in collective cell migration generally measure q…
Instantaneous cell migration velocity may be ill-defined
Gilberto L. Thomas, Ismael Fortuna, Gabriel C. Perrone +3
Cell crawling is critical to biological development, homeostasis and disease. In many cases, cell trajectories are quasi-random-walk. In vitro assays on flat surfaces often describ…
Growth laws and self-similar growth regimes of coarsening two-dimensional foams: Transition from dry to wet limits
Ismael Fortuna, Gilberto L. Thomas, Rita M. C. de Almeida +1
We study the topology and geometry of two dimensional coarsening foams with arbitrary liquid fraction. To interpolate between the dry limit described by von Neumann's law, and the…
