Cell rearrangements are critical for tissue remodeling during diverse biological processes,
such as morphogenesis or cancer progression. They control tissue fluidity and can lead to …

Living tissues dynamically reshape their internal cellular structures through carefully
regulated cell-to-cell interactions during morphogenesis. These cellular rearrangement …

Synthetic biomimetic prototissues with reduced complexity can facilitate the understanding
of intricate biological processes, by allowing the role of specific physical or chemical …

Collective cell migration (CCM) is a universal process that is responsible for various
biological phenomena in living organisms. Therefore, unraveling the mechanism of CCM is …

Aqueous foams coarsen with time due to gas diffusion through the liquid between the
bubbles. The mean bubble size grows, and small bubbles vanish. However, coarsening is …

Recent advances in the field of bottom-up synthetic biology have led to the development of
synthetic cells that mimic some features of real cells, such as division, protein synthesis, or …

Characterizing the mechanical properties of tissues is key for the understanding of
fundamental biological processes such as morphogenesis or tumor progression. In …

Erythrocytes, also known as red blood cells, are the most abundant type of cells in the
human body. Among the mechanical peculiarities of these cells are their specific shape and …

One of the most striking features of animal cells is their ability to change shape and migrate
in response to environmental cues. At the tissue scale, cells behave and respond …
