The paper investigates the non-cell-autonomous role of non-muscle myosin II in guiding collective migration of zebrafish polster cells through mechanical signaling.

This study identifies MiniBAR as a dual Rac and Rab effector essential for ciliogenesis, showing its role in coordinating actin dynamics and membrane trafficking.

The paper investigates how collective cell migration is robust to different integration strategies of guidance stimuli using an individual-based model.

The paper shows that polster cells in zebrafish gastrulation are guided by their follower cells through mechanotransduction, enabling long-range coordination of migration.
