Physical Constraints in Cell Migration
Hye-ran’s paper regarding biophysical constraints in accuracy and persistence in cancer cell chemotaxis is just accepted in PLOS Computational Biology. This study provides a new insight to understand cancer metastasis and develop new therapeutic strategies. This work is based on collaboration with Professor Mugler’s group at Physics. Physical constraints on accuracy and persistence during breast…

About Han Research Group
We are highly dynamic, interactive, collaborative and diverse group of peoples. We study transport phenomena in biological environments, so-called biotransport, to control and engineer the transport of momentum, energy, and chemical species to develop new therapeutics, biotechnologies and biomaterials. Our current research is focused on drug delivery to tumor, cell-fluid-matrix interactions in stromal tissues, and engineering of…
