Stem cell-derived synthetic embryos self-assemble by exploiting cadherin codes and cortical tension.
Mammalian embryos sequentially differentiate into trophectoderm and an inner cell mass, the latter of which differentiates into primitive endoderm and epiblast. Trophoblast stem (TS), extraembryonic endoderm (XEN) and embryonic...

Hard-sphere interactions in velocity jump models
Group-level behaviour of particles undergoing a velocity jump process with hard-sphere interactions is investigated. We derive N-particle transport equations that include the possibility of collisions between particles and apply...
