Cell currents triggered by left-right asymmetry

Fibrosarcoma cells organize themselves close to a physical border in order to move collectively along it. This surprising discovery from the team of Pascal Silberzan, Biology-Inspired Physics at Mesoscales (CNRS UMR168 / Sorbonne University) at Institut Curie has earned him a publication in the prestigious journal Physical Review X.
