A dynamical analysis of the alignment mechanism between two interacting cells

V. Leech, M. P. Dalwadi, A. Manhart

This paper analyzes the alignment mechanism of two interacting cells using a dynamical system approach, finding that self-propulsion and overlap avoidance interact to generate alignment.

Derivation and simulation of a computational model of active cell populations: How overlap avoidance, deformability, cell-cell junctions and cytoskeletal forces affect alignment

V. Leech, F. Kenny, S. Marcotti, T. Shaw, B. Stramer, A. Manhart

This study develops and simulates a computational model to understand how cell properties affect collective alignment, finding optimal self-propulsion and overlap avoidance ratios, and the role of deformability and junctions.
