Many researchers have tried to create a mathematical model of how cells pack
together to form tissue, but most models have many different complicated factors
and no model is universal.

Healthy cells have regulating mechanisms that generally
limit how rapidly they can divide. Skin cells, for example, normally divide
about once every 30 days, but they can divide faster in response to a wound that
needs healing....

During the first 24 hours of invasion by the malaria-inducing
parasite Plasmodium falciparum, red blood cells start to lose their ability to
deform and squeeze through tiny blood vessels--one of the hallmarks of the
deadly disease that infects...
