MSc by Research: Cell migration in epithelial tissues

It is an important question to answer how cells move in a crowded environment.  In this project, we’ll use the vertex model (a widely used computational framework for cell-based studies of epithelial tissue mechanics) to study motion of a small patch of motile cells in otherwise inert environment. .
