Traction and Stress Control Formation and Motion of +1/2 Topological Defects in Epithelial Cell Monolayers
Pradip K. Bera, Molly McCord, Jun Zhang +1
In confluent cell monolayers, patterns of cell forces and motion are systematically altered near topological defects in cell shape. In turn, defects have been proposed to alter cel…

Stress-shape misalignment in confluent cell layers
Mehrana R. Nejad, Liam J. Ruske, Molly McCord +4
This study investigates the relationship between cell shape and cell-generated stresses in confluent cell layers. Using simultaneous measurements of cell shape orientation and cell…
