Wettability control of droplet durotaxis

Durotaxis refers to cell motion directed by stiffness gradients of an underlying substrate. Recent work has shown that droplets also move spontaneously along stiffness gradients through a process reminiscent of durotaxis. Wetting droplets, however, move toward softer substrates, an observation seemi...
