This edited volume presents a collection of contributions meant to illustrate the state of the art on this topic from an interdisciplinary perspective. Readers will find a detailed discussion of the properties of individual and collective cell migration, including the associated biochemical regulation and important biophysical and biomechanical aspects. The book includes information on the latest experimental techniques employed to study cell migration, from microfluidics to traction force microscopy, as well as the latest theoretical and computational models used to interpret the experimental data. Finally, the role of cell migration in cancer and in development is also reviewed. The contents of this work should appeal to students and researchers in biology and biophysics who want to get up to date on the latest interdisciplinary development in this broad field of research. The chapters are written in a self-contained form and can also be used as individual articles. 410 0$aAdvances in Experimental Medicine and Biology,$x2214-8019 ;$v1146 606 $aCytology 606 $aBioinformatics 606 $aBiophysics 606 $aBiology$xTechnique 606 $aCell Biology 606 $aComputational and Systems Biology 606 $aBiophysics 606 $aBiological Techniques 615 0$aCytology. 615 0$aBioinformatics. 615 0$aBiophysics. 615 0$aBiology$xTechnique. 615 14$aCell Biology. 615 24$aComputational and Systems Biology. 615 24$aBiophysics. 615 24$aBiological Techniques. 676 $a571.6 676 $a571.67 702 $aLa Porta$b Caterina$f1966-$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aZapperi$b Stefano$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349441003321 996 $aCell Migrations: Causes and Functions$92022543 997 $aUNINA
