interstitially
Within the spaces
In the spaces between things.
Something that exists or occurs interstitially occupies gaps or intervals: The drug spreads interstitially through tissue, She worked interstitially, fitting projects between other obligations.
The word appears most often in medical and scientific contexts describing movement or placement within small spaces.
