Investigating Local Negative Feedback of Rac Activity by Mathematical Models and Cell Motility Simulations
For polarization and directed migration, cells use a combination of local positive feedback and long-range inhibition. We have previously used mathematical models to show the ability of this core…

Check this fascinating footage: a neutrophil navigating towards a micropipette. These cells can not only navigate complex, noisy environments, but also rapidly reorient to new cues. Curious about how they do it? Keep reading!

Inspired by the huge community of researchers that work in cell migration I was inspired to create my BlueSky profile. For my first post here, I’d like to share a bit about my favourite cellular modelling tool, Morpheus, and share some of my fun simulations with a small tutorial I’ve done for it.
