  • During development, wound healing, differentiation or cancer metastasis, cells move continuously in heterogeneous environments, hence understanding how cell migration is controlled by confinement and by different substrate shapes is crucial to begin to build a first conceptual framework for cell motility. Here the authors develop a computational approach to systematically investigate the effect that a complex environment has on cell motion and speed.

  • Migration is one of the hallmarks of biological cells and often results from intracellular flows caused by contractility gradients. Here the authors theoretically analyze if and how the experimental tool of optogenetics can be used to control cell migration through light-induced contractility.

  • Asymmetric nanotopography biases unidirectional cell migration, yet the underpinning molecular determinants are still unclear. The authors use a three-dimensional model to demonstrate that nanosawteeth induce actin-mediated migration directionality, which is dependent on the cell velocity.

  • Lamellipodial waves are a very general phenomenon observed in many cell types and is a typical phenomenon for animal cells to adhere and move along substrates. The authors present a model showing that the dynamics of these waves can be reproduced with a minimal, well-defined set of parameters.
