Celebrating Soft Matter's 10th Anniversary: Cell division: a source of active stress in cellular monolayers.
We introduce the notion of cell division-induced activity and show that the cell division generates extensile forces and drives dynamical patterns in cell assemblies. Extending the hydrodynamic models of lyotropic active nematics we describe turbulent-like velocity fields that are generated by the c...
