Models for Collective Cell Behaviour

We introduce cellular automata as models for collective behaviour in interacting cell populations. We focus on mechanisms of collective cell migration and invasion and demonstrate how analysis of the models allows for prediction of emerging properties at the cell population level. Finally, we discuss applications of the invasion models to glioma tumours.

Speaker: Prof. Dr. Andreas Deutsch, TU Dresden
