title: Wound Signaling: Monkeywrenching Macrophage Migration with Microscopes, Movies, and Math.
abstract: Drosophila hemocytes (blood cells) have emerged as a powerful system to image wound-induced inflammatory responses in vivo. New work reveals that layering mathematical modeling on top of imaging may be the most powerful tool yet for determining the properties of wound-induced signals.
