| Abstract | This Facilitating Research at Primarily Undergraduate Institutions (RUI) project supports fundamental research to study collective cell migration, a crucial process in embryonic development, wound healing, tissue regeneration, and cancer metastasis. The interplay between mechanical force and biochemical factors during this migration is not well understood. This project will study the correlation between mechanical force and biochemical factors in engineered biomimetic microenvironments. The resu |
