Creator:: Li, Guanyu
Abstract:: Cell signaling under external stimulation is a critical mechanism that governs many biological processes such as cell proliferation, cell migration, and cell apoptosis, etc. For multicellular organisms, the ability to synchronize heterogeneous individual cellular responses through intercellular communication is crucial to maintain normal functionality. However, even though the biological pathways...

Full Text:: Monolayer’s Self-organization Under External Stimuli Abstract approved: Bo Sun Cell signaling under

Creator:: Eddy, Christopher Z.
Abstract:: At the intersection of basic science research and clinical relevance, cancer metastasis and cell invasion is a multifaceted problem that has been investigated for the past several decades. Importantly, cancer cell plasticity, the ability of a single cell to change its phenotype without genetic mutations in response to environmental cues,...

Full Text:: of 3D Migrating Cancer Cells Abstract approved: Bo Sun At the intersection of basic science

Creator:: Kim, Jihan
Abstract:: Cell migration is fundamental for physiological processes such as immune re-sponses, wound healing and development. It is also a critical characteristic of metastatic cancer cells. An extensive amount of studies have focused on 2D sub-strates in order to understand the mechanism of cancer metastasis. However, much less is known about...

Creator:: Alobaidi, Amani A.
Abstract:: Cancer cell migration in three-dimensional extracellular matrix is a major cause of death for cancer patients. Although extensive studies have elucidated detailed mechanism of single cell 3D invasion and cell-ECM interaction, 3D collective cancer invasion is still poorly understood. 3D collective migration models have unveiled unexpected degrees of diversity and...

Creator:: Jones, Christopher
Abstract:: The structure and mechanics of tissues affect many important cellular functions such as migration, differentiation, and growth. Mechanical interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM), as well as ECM-mediated mechanical communication between cells, plays a part in coordinating collective cellular dy- namics during critical processes such as morphogenesis, tissue...

Full Text:: -Dimensional Microenvironments of Cells Abstract approved: Bo Sun The structure and mechanics of tissues

Creator:: Potter, Garrett D.
Abstract:: The ability for individual cells and multicellular networks to process information contained in perceived stimuli is of vital importance to their proper functioning and ultimately their cellular fate. The primary mechanism employed by cells to this end is the use of biochemical signaling in which a series of molecular events...
