Modeling epithelial tissues as active-elastic sheets reproduce contraction pulses and predict rip resistance

S. Armon, M. S. Bull, et al.

Discover a groundbreaking experiment-inspired model for dynamic epithelia from researchers Shahaf Armon, Matthew S. Bull, Avraham Moriel, Hillel Aharoni, and Manu Prakash. This model reveals how cellular contraction under tension creates propagating contraction pulses and offers insights into enhancing rip resistance in various tissues. A fascinating exploration that could inspire the design of synthetic materials!... show more
