Cellular Potts Model — Cell Sorting by Differential Adhesion

The Cellular Potts Model simulates how cells with different cadherin expression levels spontaneously sort into separate domains. Cells of the same type (same cadherin level) preferentially adhere — minimizing interfacial energy drives the sorting, recapitulating Steinberg's differential adhesion hypothesis.
