New study showing the effects of fluid viscosity on cell migration now published in Nature!

We are delighted to share our new collaborative work led by the Konstantopoulos Lab at Johns Hopkins University, now published in Nature, showing that elevated viscosity counterintuitively increases cell motility and imprints mechanical memory in tumor cells enabling them to disseminate more efficiently in vivo.
