    Abstract: An object for altering cell behavior includes a surface part provided with at least one topography configured to modulate at least one of morphology, proliferation, biochemical functioning, differentiation, attachment, migration, signaling, or cell death of a cell population by physical stimulation, where the at least one topography includes a surface and multiple protrusions protruding from the surface, where the protrusions define multiple valleys between adjacent protrusions such that the adjacent protrusions do not touch, where each protrusion includes at least one protrusion element, where the top surface area of the at least one protrusion element has a complex shape comprising a combination of basic shapes, interconnected by one or more overlapping portions, the basic shapes including at least one of a circle, oval, triangle, square, rectangle, trapezoid, pentagon, hexagon, heptagon or octagon.
