Popis: Starting from the beginning of the 20th century, theoretical models of living tissues have evolved along two distinct conceptual lines. The first of these views considers the tissue as a set of discrete, interacting cells, whereas the other treats it as a continuum, and monitors cell densities instead of individual cells1. Here we briefly describe a few of these models. The interested reader can find further details in the cited literature.
