Unjamming and cell shape in the asthmatic airway epithelium

2016-04-01

Abstract excerpt

From coffee beans flowing in a chute to cells remodeling in a living tissue, a wide variety of close‐packed collective systems –both inert and living– have the potential to jam. The collective can sometimes flow like a fluid or jam and rigidify like a solid. The unjammed‐to‐jammed transition remains poorly understood, however, and structural properties characterizing these phases remain unknown. Using primary huma...
