A Physical Model of Axonal Elongation: Force, Viscosity, and Adhesions Govern the Mode of Outgrowth

Whether the axonal framework is stationary or moves is a central debate in cell biology. To better understand this problem, we developed a mathematical model that incorporates force generation at the growth cone, the viscoelastic properties of the axon, and adhesions between the axon and substrate....
