Abstract:
A method of quantifying cell migration of a cell population is provided. The method includes the step of patterning the cell population within a channel network in a first body. A first image of the cell population is obtained. Thereafter, a second image of the cell population is obtained after a first predetermined time period. The first and second images are compared in order to calculate a quantitative measure of the average directional migration of the cells population and a quantitative measure of the average motility of the cell population.
