Epithelial cell dynamics



This video by Fok Yulia addresses recent research in dynamics of epithelial cell sheets. Epithelial dynamics are a key factor in skin lesion repair and wound repair. Collective cell dynamics somehow differ greatly from individual cell motion. The understanding of such dynamics is essential for the study of lesion repair, as well as dynamics of cancerous cells.


Fok Yulia is a student in the Cell Physics Master at the University of Strasbourg, France.


This video is mainly based on the following paper: G. Peyret, R. Mueller, J. d’Alessandro, S. Begnaud, P. Marcq, R.-M. Mege, J. M. Yeomans, A. Doostmohammadi, and B. Ladoux, Sustained oscillations of epithelial cell sheets, Biophysical Journal 117, 464 (2019).
