Inferring geometrical dynamics of cell nucleus translocation

The ability of eukaryotic cells to squeeze through constrictions is limited by the stiffness of their large and rigid nucleus. However, migrating cells are often able to overcome this limitation and pass through constrictions much smaller than their nucleus, a mechanism that is not yet understood. H...
