Along the case study of keratinocyte motility I intend to
give an overview on some recently applied methods used for extracting
speed and periodicity of lamellipodial protrusions and lamella
or ruffle retractions. Also, I will derive mathematical model
equations and present numerical simulations which, to a certain
extend, reproduce the observed motility behavior.
