Overview

Daniel D. Joseph was affiliated with the University of Minnesota in the United States. Their research primarily focused on biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology, with significant contributions in cell biology, biomedical engineering, condensed matter physics, oncology, and ecology, evolution, behavior, and systematics.

The scientist's work addressed several main topics, notably cellular mechanics and interactions, 3D printing in biomedical research, micro and nano robotics, cancer cells and metastasis, biocrusts and microbial ecology, diffusion and search dynamics, and mathematical biology related to tumor growth.

Joseph's recent publications included the following:

  • The role of single-cell mechanical behaviour and polarity in driving collective cell migration (2020, Nature Physics)
  • Cell migration guided by long-lived spatial memory (2021, Nature Communications)
  • The emergence of spontaneous coordinated epithelial rotation on cylindrical curved surfaces (2022, Science Advances)
  • Disentangling cadherin-mediated cell-cell interactions in collective cancer cell migration (2021, Biophysical Journal)
  • EpCAM promotes endosomal modulation of the cortical RhoA zone for epithelial organization (2021, Nature Communications)

Frequent coauthors in their publications included Benoît Ladoux, Raphaël Voituriez, Victor Cellerin, René-Marc Mège, and Chwee Teck Lim.

Joseph published often in venues such as bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Nature Communications, Biophysical Journal, Nature Physics, and Science Advances.

Throughout their career, Daniel D. Joseph received several awards. These included the Fluid Dynamics Prize from the American Physical Society in 1999, the Timoshenko Medal from The American Society of Mechanical Engineers in 1995, fellowship with the American Physical Society in 1993 for contributions to fluid motions and non-Newtonian fluids, membership in the National Academy of Sciences in 1991, and fellowship of the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation in 1969.
