“Cellular Motility and Integrin Relocation: From Theory to HPC Simulations”
How do cells move, sense their environment, and adapt their behaviour?
This question sits at the heart of some of biology’s most consequential processes: tumour metastasis, angiogenesis, and embryogenesis.
And answering it requires connecting molecular-scale mechanics to large-scale computational simulation.
In the next dealiiX seminar, Alberto Salvadori and Mattia Serpelloni (Università degli Studi di Brescia, Mechanobiology Research Center) will present a continuum multiphysics framework for cell locomotion, covering the engine, the adhesion, and the active relocation of integrins during migration.
Central to their talk: how integrin mobility within the lipid bilayer drives the transition from transient adhesion contacts to stable focal adhesions, and how HPC simulations via deal.II capture integrin redistribution during membrane advection, benchmarked against experimental data.
Whether you work in mechanobiology, computational mechanics, or multiphysics modelling, this one is not to miss.
