✦ Synopsis

In this paper a measure is proposed of the rate with which the collective motion of cells leads to aggregation and structure formation. It will be shown that the spatial entropy of the cells tends to decrease during aggregation and an index will be derived to quantify the rate with which this process takes place. Finally, applications will be presented to experiments on cellular migration and aggregation.
