In this paper, we describe four experimental studies we carried out over the last four years
in the MMN lab, regarding the dynamical behaviour of complex fluids in microfluidic systems. …

Motility is a common property of animal cells. Cell motility is required for embryogenesis [1],
tissue morphogenesis [2] and the immune response [3] but is also involved in disease …

Calyculin A. Data from four independent experiments are represented as box and whiskers (10–90 …

When red blood cells (RBCs) pass constrictions or small capillaries they need to pass apertures
falling well below their own cross section size. We used different means of mechanical …

This chapter describes a method to study cells migrating in micro-channels, a confining
environment of well-defined geometry. This assay is a complement to more complex 3D …
