Rooted America: Immobility and Segregation of the Intercounty Migration Network [PDF]

Active-gel Theory for Multicellular Migration of Polar Cells in the Extra-cellular Matrix [PDF]

Our theory enables to analyze the dynamic reciprocity between the migrating cells and their environment in terms of distinct relative forces and alignment mechanisms ...
