​Cell & Tissue Mechanics

Ben has developed simulations to predict long term cell migration in 3D tissue environments

Zibah is determining the effects that mechanical variation and spatial arrangement of cells has on tumorigenesis in healthy tissues

Bri is determining how the spatial arrangement of cells with specific mechanical properties in a tissue can influence tumor-like cell proliferation

Esteban is modeling calcium inflows and cell contractility of neonatal cardiac cells
