Modelling cell-cell collision and adhesion with the filament based lamellipodium model

We extend the live-cell motility Filament Based Lamellipodium Model (FBLM) to incorporate the forces exerted on the lamellipodium of the cells due to cell-cell collision and cadherin induced cell-cell adhesion. We take into account the nature of these forces via physical and biological constraints a...
