A Screen for Morphological Complexity Identifies Regulators of Switch-like Transitions between Discrete Cell Shapes

The way in which cells adopt different morphologies is not fully understood. Cell shape could be a continuous variable or restricted to a set of discrete forms. We developed quantitative methods to describe cell shape and show that Drosophila hemocytes in culture are a heterogeneous mixture of five...
