Persistent random motion: Uncovering cell migration dynamics

In this paper we study analytically the stick–slip models recently introduced to explain the stochastic migration of free cells. We show that persistent motion of cells of many different types is compatible with stochastic reorientation models which admit an analytical mesoscopic treatment. This is...
