Computer simulation of cellular patterning within the Drosophila pupal eye.

Computer simulation of cellular patterning within the Drosophila pupal eye.

We present a computer simulation and associated experimental validation of assembly of glial-like support cells into the interweaving hexagonal lattice that spans the Drosophila pupal eye. This process of cell movements organizes the ommatidial array into a functional pattern. Unlike earlier simulat...
