Jian Zhang, an assistant professor of biomedical engineering, will study how mechanical forces and cellular energy constraints guide cell motion in engineered tissue models.
Migrating newborn neurons suffer routine double-strand DNA breaks from physical stress during brain development.
Cell migration is a multistep process essential to various physiological functions, including immune cell movement and embryonic development, as well as pathological conditions like tumor metastasis.
A new study integrated mathematical modeling with advanced imaging to discover that the physical shape of the fruit fly egg chamber, combined with chemical signals, significantly influences how cells ...
