The conference “the Origins of Metazoans” will take place in Paris, France, on 7-8 November 2017, under the hospice of ITMO BCDE, focusing on how metazoans have emerged. A poster session with short talks selection will be organised.
Bringing together researchers with a shared interest in design principle of living systems, to discuss the challenges and opportunities of engineering stem cell self-organization into tissues and organs in culture, ultimately with the efficiency and precision of an organism
A Barcelona BioMed Conference
Mechanical forces are critical for embryonic development – yet very little is known about their roles. The meeting will focus on the role of mechanobiology in multiple aspects of embryonic development.
This Symposium will bring together those working in distinct disciplines such as cell and developmental biology, tissue biophysics, theoretical modeling, organoids and synthetic biology, and provide a platform to discuss and identify key approaches and future collaborations.
Keynote Speaker: Randall Peterson, University of Utah, USA
Young FishMed Keynote Speaker: Benoit Vanhollebeke, Université libre de Bruxelles, Belgium
The preliminary programme is available at the FishMed2018 webpage.
Registration starts on October 1, 2017.
The general objective of this workshop is to bring together researchers interested in interdisciplinary approaches to tissue morphogenesis.
Topics/methods will include mechano-chemical patterning and regulation, gene regulation of/by mechanics, imaging/probing biochemical signaling and mechanics, integration of genetics/biochemistry/mechanics in theoretical models.
