Spatially varying cell fitness induced by confinement geometry and alignment — •Patrick Zimmer1,2, Yoav G.

Competition of cell phenotypes for limited space plays a role in both development and in tumor progression (healthy-cancerous / cancerous-cancerous clones). We focus here on purely non-adversarial competition dominated by stochastic fluctuations, avoiding any 'killing' related advantage.

Predicting the outcome for competition of such growing active matter is non-trivial, as it depends on how cell turnover via growth, proliferation and the degradation of cellular matter is regulated by mechano-sensing in confinement.

We show that in a circular confinement, fitness of clones varies in the edge compared to the center correlated with layering, polar order of cell alignment and pressure modulation.
