The pan-cancer dataset provides a rich array of cellular physical measurements (spread area, shape (circularity and aspect ratio), cell stiffness, and motility) across 30 cell lines spanning 8 different tissue types on varying substrates which consist of polyacrylamide (PAAm) gels with elastic moduli of 500 Pa or 30 kPa coated with either fibronectin (500 Pa FN, 30 kPa FN) or collagen I (500 Pa Coll, 30 kPa Coll), cross-linked hyaluronic acid gels with elastic modulus of 500 Pa coated with fibronectin (HA FN) or collagen I (HA Coll), or glass slides (Fig. 1a). This evidence concerns the gene FN1 and cancer.
