  1. Shows the number of hours taken for cell shape to be dissimilar when attaching on different topographies and spreading from an initial unattached round state. Different columns compare flat/flat-osteo, flat/aligned, random/flat, and aligned/random for the different cell shape parameters area, circularity, major axis and minor axis. N/A indicates the parameters never diverge. Additional information on the analysis is available in the supplementary information.
