Seeing a Coastline Paradox in Membrane Reservoirs

Publication date: 4 December 2017

Author(s): Anna Marie Sokac
In this issue of Developmental Cell, Goudarzi et al. (2017) examine the membrane source that allows bleb-based cell migration in vivo. Their work reminds us of the fractal nature of cell surfaces and highlights how the unfolding of these convoluted surfaces contributes to physiologically relevant cell shape change in intact organisms.
