Edges Impose Planar Alignment in Nematic Monolayers by Directing Cell Elongation and Enhancing Migration

Boundaries play an important role in the emergence of nematic order in classical liquid crystal systems; we explore their importance for adhesive cells that form active nematics. In particular, we study how cells are affected by an edge, which in our experiments is a boundary between adhesive and no...
