Modeling Contact Inhibition of Locomotion of Colliding Cells Migrating on Micropatterned Substrates.

In cancer metastasis, embryonic development, and wound healing, cells can coordinate their motion, leading to collective motility. To characterize these cell-cell interactions, which include contact inhibition of locomotion (CIL), micropatterned substrates are often used to restrict cell migration t...
