The complicated side of science

We received 15 cell lines, 12 Dicty and 3 HL60. Six cell lines showed robust migration through the mazes and reached the end (teams 7, 11, 12, 15, 17, 4). Three lines (teams 1, 9, 18) were slow to...

Thanks, Denny! This is just the tip of the iceberg. The more we learn about neutrophil migration using high precision tools, the more interesting it gets.
