The theory suggests that F-actin barbed ends have to be focused and protected from capping once every hundred seconds per micron of the leading edge to initiate the observed number of filopodia, and the model generates testable predictions about how filopidial length, rate of growth, and interfilopodial distance should depend on the number of bundled filaments, membrane resistance, lamellipodial protrusion rate, and G-actIn diffusion coefficient.

A model for adhesion assembly is developed that clarifies the relative contributions of myosin II and actin polymerization and organization and produces a model that shows that nascent adhesions assemble and are stable within the lamellipodium.

The natural phenotypic variability in a large population of motile epithelial keratocytes from fish to reveal mechanisms of shape determination is harnessed and it is found that the cells inhabit a low-dimensional, highly correlated spectrum of possible functional states.

Abstract. This paper describes continuum models for swarming behavior based on non-local interactions. The interactions are assumed to influence the velocity of the organisms. The model consists of…

It is shown quantitatively how repulsion must dominate attraction to avoid collapse of the group to a tight cluster and the existence of a well-spaced locally stable state, having a characteristic individual distance.
