Direct measurement of cell-cell friction

Domaines
Physics of living systems

Type of internship
Expérimental
Description
In situations of collective migration, the dynamical response of the monolayer depends upon cell-substrate and cell-cell friction, both parameters being difficult to measure directly. Here, we propose a new methodology for a direct measurement of cell-cell friction based on directed collective motion of cell via microstructures.
