A Temporal Array of Fluorescence Images Captures the Migration of a Cell

Caption

A temporal array of fluorescence images captures the migration of a cell through a microfluidic channel before and after division. The "mother" cell appears in light blue up to the time of division when it appears mostly green and its migration stops completely. The two "daughter" cells after division appear in darker blue. One of the daughter cells moves fast after division, while the other moves significantly slower. Vertical bar is 100 µm. The time between consecutive images is 20 minutes.
