This paper develops a minimal physical model to explain curvotaxis by simulating curved protein complexes at the cell's leading edge and shows it matches experimental observations on curved substrates.

This study combines theory and experiments to show that cellular protrusions coil around round fibers but not elliptical ones, driven by membrane curvature and adhesion energies.

This paper presents a theoretical model explaining how curved membrane proteins and active cytoskeletal forces drive efficient phagocytosis, showing reduced adhesion strength requirements and faster engulfment.

The paper models cellular spreading and motility by simulating vesicle behavior with curved membrane proteins and active forces, showing how these factors drive lamellipodia formation and motility.
