Active forces in confluent cell monolayers

We use a computational phase-field model together with analytical analysis to study how intercellular active forces can mediate individual cell morphology and collective motion in a confluent cell monolayer. We explore the regime where intercellular forces dominate the tissue dynamics, and polar for...
