Predicting the Efficacy of Stalk Cells Following Leading Cells Through a Micro-Channel Using Morphoelasticity and a Cell Shape Evolution Model

Cancer cell migration between different body parts is the driving force behind cancer metastasis, which causes mortality of patients. Migration of cancer cells often proceeds by penetration through narrow cavities in possibly stiff tissues. In our previous work [12], a model for the evolution of cell geometry is developed, and in the current...
