Abstract
Modelling collective cell movement in biology and medicine
Abstract: Collective cell movement occurs throughout biology and medicine and there
are many common features shared across different areas. I will review work we have carried out over the past few years on (i) systematically deriving a PDE model for tumour angiogenesis from a discrete formulation and comparing this model with the classical, phenomenological snail-trail model; (ii) agent-based models for cranial neural crest cell migration in a collaboration with experimental biologists that has revealed a number of new biological insights.
