Abstract :
In many cases in
biology, cells need to get from one place to another. I will consider
two examples of
this: (i) neural crest cell invasion, (ii) angiogenesis.
In (i) I will
show how the development of a simple hybrid cellular automaton model
has resulted in
the discovery of new biological insights to the mechanism of cell-cell
communication and
movement.
In (ii) I will
re-visit the well-known snail-trail PDE model for angiogenesis and consider
a derivation of
it through a master equation approach.
