SPLW02 - Active mechanics, from single cells to cell layers, tissues and development

We introduce a bottom-up mechanical model to relate tissues' dynamical and mechanical properties to intercellular and subcellular mechanical processes, which we describe in unprecedented detail. Our novel computational model overcomes the limitations of Vertex/Voronoi models, centroid models and phase fields one. It provides a unified description of motile isolated deformable cells, their interaction and aggregation into confluent tissues, the lamellipodium-mediated dynamics and mechanotransduction. In this talk, I briefly introduce our novel model and use it to examine how mechanotransduction enables tissues to flow confluently when under tension.
