Sensing the shape of a cell with reaction-diffusion and energy minimization
Amit R. Singh, Travis Leadbetter, Brian A. Camley
Some dividing cells sense their shape by becoming polarized along their long axis. Cell polarity is controlled in part by polarity proteins like Rho GTPases cycling between active…

Collective gradient sensing with limited positional information
Emiliano Perez Ipiña, Brian A. Camley
Eukaryotic cells sense chemical gradients to decide where and when to move. Clusters of cells can sense gradients more accurately than individual cells by integrating measurements…

Active gels, heavy tails, and the cytoskeleton
Daniel W. Swartz, Brian A. Camley
The eukaryotic cell's cytoskeleton is a prototypical example of an active material: objects embedded within it are driven by molecular motors acting on the cytoskeleton, leading to…
