Abstract
In this work the phenomenon of contact inhibition of growth is studied by applying an individual based model and a continuum multiphase model to describe cell colony growth in vitro. The impact of different cell behavior in response to mechanical cues is investigated. The work aims at comparing the results from both models from the qualitative and, whenever possible, also the quantitative point of view.
