Modelling the Collective Mechanical Regulation of the Structure and Morphology of Epithelial Cell Layers

The morphology and function of epithelial sheets play an important role in healthy tissue development and cancer progression. The maintenance of structure of closely packed epithelial layers requires the coordination of various mechanical forces due to intracellular activities and interactions with...
